Having debuted in 2024 with the revelatory EP “A Worm Through Time,” THE OLDEST HOUSE returns with a full-length album in which sole member Alex Moreán—vocalist for AVERSIO HUMANITATIS—expands the project’s stylistic boundaries. If the previous work could be described as “a ritual of black psychedelia at the crossroads between Neurosis and Tangerine Dream,” “The Art of Abysswalking” delves into an even darker and more violent sound, leaning more toward the death metal influences already present in the past.

At times furious and at times meditative, “The Art Of Abysswalking” is influenced by the sound of metal against metal and the visage of crumbling stone landscapes, once again constructed as a unified sonic journey in which each song, able to live a life of its own, flows into the next so as to paint a gigantic emotional fresco of sludge doom and post-metal.
It is the hero’s journey through himself and the hardships of life, well described in the long and devastating black mass of “Tomb Of The Giants”, which seems to summarize in a single monolith all the poetics of THE OLDEST HOUSE: A concentration of existentialism and nihilism, but also of will and perseverance in the face of a dead world.
