American epic doom metal band Marble Orchard drops new single and music video »Seven Swords, Seven Sorrows«

San Antonio, Texas based epic doom metal band Marble Orchard feat. Michael Alcala (Black Jackal, ex-Goat Bong) drops new single and music video »Seven Swords, Seven Sorrows«.

»Seven Swords, Seven Sorrows« is the first single taken from Marble Orchard’s sophomore full-length album, »Ruminations Of Ruin«, set to release on March 21st, 2025 through Morbid and Miserable Records.

Marble Orchard, hailing from San Antonio, Texas, is a doom metal band that delves deep into themes of suffering, loss, and introspection. Masterminded by Michael Alcala, the band combines heavy, harmonious guitars with church organs, choirs, and melodious vocals, creating a sound that is both haunting and evocative. Their music is a powerful exploration of Catholic guilt and worship through suffering, aiming to evoke strong emotional responses from their listeners.

“Plunge yourself into a religious fervor of penance and attrition. Steeped in the sounds of an Roman Catholic Church, where only tears can pay your toll to heaven. Subject yourself to inquisition and confess your blasphemies, only through your suffering will you pass the gates of Heaven.”
