THE FIFTH ALLIANCE streaming new album in full!

November 20, 2015
1 min read

After two initial teaser features on IDIOTEQ (here and here), no more words are needed here. A complete vision of THE FIFTH ALLIANCE worth diving into and listening to in one sitting. Here they are: the ‘Death Poems’!

The record is being released via Consouling Sounds (CD), on tape via Breathe Plastic Records, Diorama Records, and vinyl via WOOAAARGH, Dingleberry Records, Grains Of Sand Records, Monomentum Collective,Smithsfoodgroup DIY, Solitary Wolf/Vleesklak Records and Vinylaceton.

The Fifth Alliance is a 5-piece from Breda, The Netherlands who blend blackish sludge, gut-wrenching doom and hypnotic (post)hardcore/metal. After debuting two years ago with their well-received album “Unrevealed Secrets Of Ruin”, the band is on full strength for their upcoming release of their successor: “Death Poems”, The Fifth Alliance leaps forward in terms of intelligent arrangements, subtle passages and building immense layers of atmosphere, led by Silvia Berger’s heartfelt screaming of pure emotion and beauty, merging “Death Poems” into their heaviest outburst yet.
