METAL DIGEST

‘Exodus’ is the 18th studio album by dark wave and goth scene leaders Clan Of Xymox. Appearing three years after the eerily echoing ‘Limbo’, an account of the pandemic and its consequences, wave wizard Ronny Moorings offers a black bouquet of mournful dirges for our sick new world that also act as a set of elegies for the new status quo.

Four decades since originally forming in the Netherlands, Moorings and his cohorts remain beacons of tragic elegance and morbid tristesse, spearheads of a scene that has attracted successive generations of new fans. ‘Exodus’ offers ten new anthems of exquisite darkness and is yet another masterpiece packed with longing melodies, brooding vocals, heavily reverbed guitars and hypnotic drums.

A darkly spellbinding exodus towards catharsis, ‘Exodus’ contains some of the deepest, darkest songs that Moorings has crafted in many years. They not only nod to his ’80s contemporaries, but also point towards the future.
