You have to hand it to Melbourne 'cinema-core' outfit The Gloom In The Corner when it comes to originality.
Not only does the band invest much time, effort and skill into their musicality including features, samples and symphonic touches, but they have also meticulously constructed a conceptual story arc that involves many layers and attention to detail.
Preparing to unleash their sophomore album Trinity on October 28, The Gloom In The Corner continue with the same arc laid out on previous releases, this time bolstered by a variety of artists including Ryan Kirby (Fit For A King), Joe Badolato (Fit For An Autopsy), Lauren Babic (Red Handed Denial), Monique Pym (Reliqa), Monica Strut (The Last Martyr) and Elijah Witt (Cane Hill).
If you think it sounds exciting, just wait until you hear it!
HEAVY's CJ NASH caught up with The Gloom In The Corner vocalist Mikey Arthur to delve deeper into the world created by the minds of these musicians.
"It's been really cool," Arthur enthused. "The cycle has been really weird. Originally Ronin was meant to be the release day video, but, again, how the cards fell; how we could get Colin in to do all the video work we had to push Ronin up and forward. So we were kinda scared on how it was going to go. We were like, okay we know it's going to get traction because of the signing to Sharptone - that kind of announcement always generates a bit of hype - but it was an animated video. We're a very big concept driven band so having the animation and everything behind it makes sense. It's like a comic book, pretty much, but we also wondered how people would grasp that kind of thing but a lot of people have. The big thing I have taken away from these last three singles that have come out has been everybody talking about the war and getting in-depth into the war. On a level that we haven't actually seen before. it's everybody is talking about it. And every time somebody does a reaction video there's always somebody in the comments saying go back and listen to the old releases and deep dive into the war because it's really good and thick, for lack of a better word (laughs)."
In the full interview CJ pushes for more details on Trinity, the concept behind it, the guest musicians involved and why, their recent tour with ERRA and more.
