NEORITE – TEMPLE OF THE NEW

Est. in 2016 in Munich, Germany NEORITE released their first full-length album “Temple Of The New” via This Charming Man Records in July 2019. By debut standards, this album distinctly reveals the whole range of Neorite’s musical capacity and hints at the band’s development potential on the albums to come already. Primarily rooted in doom metal, NEORITE process further influences from alternative/wave and classic rock to thrash and black metal, themselves referring to it as ‘metal noir’ in order to emphasize their wistful take on both music and lyrics. While audibly referring to their diverse influences, the band’s own vision rings out all over the place. The distinctive voice of Alexander Mock (think of Nick Holmes blended with J.D. Cronise) dominates the whole soundscape and conciliates the pieces in the puzzle in an integral whole, best shown on the album-defining track “Neology Of Enlightenment”. FFO: Red Fang, The Sword
