Exhausted, one of the most revered cult names of the Portuguese death/doom underground, officially return after a long silence. Maintaining the original line-up that defined their early identity in the 1990s, the band resurfaces with renewed purpose while remaining firmly rooted in their bleak origins.
»The End Of The Sun Season«, released on CD in collaboration with Chaosphere Recordings and Caverna Abismal Records, presents a new EP alongside the legendary 1996 demo »Frozen Embrace«, long regarded as a cornerstone of the national death/doom underground.
Faithful to their DNA, Exhausted continue to explore slow, crushing riffs, suffocating atmospheres, and an unrelenting sense of melancholy – now captured with greater sonic definition without sacrificing the raw spirit forged in the ’90s. Rather than reinventing themselves, the band resumes a path once interrupted, reaffirming a legacy that never truly faded despite decades of absence.
