DYING WHALE released their Last Moments Of Misery album through Nefarious Industries in February 2017, coalescing elements of metal, sludge, and hardcore and unloading a barrage of infectious ferocity and raw emotional delivery. Last Moments Of Misery bears a theme which revolves around the dark periods in our lives, and the idea of not having a place in this world or a home in the afterlife has fueled the storyline. Recorded at Earthsound Studios, it was their fourth time working with engineer/producer Lee Dyess (Mayday Parade, From First to Last, I Set My Friends On Fire).
Decibel Magazine posted, “Last Moments Of Misery is a tour de force that pulls from a host of sounds… frantic riffing, energetic vocals and a hardcore breakdown are all territory DYING WHALE treads in less than two minutes” New Noise Magazine’s interrogation called the album, “a monster… bringing to mind Keelhaul, Kylesa, and Kalibas,” noting, “Sludgy in spots, hardcore in others, but all the while held together by threads of aggression and–if you listen closely enough–subtle beauty.” Svbterranean’s 8/10 review raved, “Last Moments Of Misery is a rambunctious, unpredictable record that will batter and bruise, but will leave fans of volatile hardcore with stupid grins on their faces. This record is turbulent, savage, complex, and is a massive leap forward for this Georgia band.”
