RIDE FOR REVENGE – Angels Fly Low, LP Gatefold

2026 studio album Angels Fly Low from Finland’s Ride for Revenge, arguably their best and heaviest album to date. This is a direct extension of their established sound, no updates, no compromises. The influence of early Godflesh and Beherit’s Drawing Down the Moon is clear, but Ride for Revenge reshapes it into something more stripped down and ugly. Blending black metal and doom into a singular, crawling entity, the band pushes a bass-and-drums-driven approach, often sidelining guitars in favor of low-end weight and primitive rhythm. Angels Fly Low is a dense, suffocating listen: filthy, slow-moving, and immersive in its repetitiveness. The emphasis is on atmosphere and weight, with a low-end presence that pulls everything into the abyss below.
