Corridoré's Abandon is coming out next month. It is the second album from the atmospheric post-black metal band from Madison, WI, out on August 22 on Hypaethral Records. The album explores themes of isolation, grief, and human resilience over eight tracks.
“The songs that make up Abandon were written before and after the pandemic, a period of introspection and change,” bassist/vocalist Eric Andraska says in a press release. “Like the rest of the world, Corridoré took a bit of a hiatus, but returned with a new focus that led to this album. In the past, I’ve generally written songs from a third-person point of view, but with this album, although the lyrics and themes still aim to be abstract, it’s the most personal I’ve gotten with lyrics. I wanted the record to convey those feelings of isolation, loneliness, and grief ‘abandonment;’ but also to look at it from the perspective of things ‘to abandon’ to break free from that which torment us.”
The group self-released their debut in 2019.
