US atmospheric funeral doom metal act The Howling Void release new album »The Glow Of A Distant Fire« today via Solitude Productions!
San Antonio, Texas based atmospheric funeral doom metal act The Howling Void is back with new album, »The Glow Of A Distant Fire«, which was just released this Friday, April 25th, 2025 via Solitude Productions.
Tracklist:
01. The Glow Of A Distant Fire
02. Towards A Storm-Cloaked Summit
03. Tat Tvam Asi
Says the band: “The Howling Void returns at last. On April 25, 2025, the new album »The Glow Of A Distant Fire« will be released by Solitude Productions. It’s great to be reunited with Solitude after all these years. The album will be distributed in Europe by Ardua Music, so there won’t be any distribution problems caused by the ongoing conflict in the region.
»The Glow Of A Distant Fire« is what you have come to expect from The Howling Void: glacial, orchestral funeral doom with haunting leads and ever-present synth textures. The album harkens back in many ways to »The Womb Beyond The World« but also represents a logical progression in The Howling Void’s songwriting.
Thank you for all of your support and I hope you will enjoy the album.”

The Howling Void presents itself to listeners with a new brilliant album that pushes the boundaries of the band’s universe. On one hand, it is a return to the boundless soundscapes of the early albums that introduced everyone to their unique vision of funeral doom metal. On the other hand, it is an evolution of the music within the mysterious mythos of The Howling Void. Epic guitar riffs, accompanied by atmospheric keyboards, resonate timelessly, touching on philosophical questions of metaphysics in the lyrics. »The Glow Of A Distant Fire« is a journey into one’s inner world, into the microcosm. It is an album without which the picture of the modern heavy scene cannot be complete.
