STARSPAWN OF CTHULHU – THE CURSED VISION
Another Friday Freebie for you lovely folks out there! Released at the end of January 2023, the album is yet another worthwhile chapter in the book of doom metal the Italian duo STARSPAWN OF CTHULHU is composing. All their albums are based on tales by H.P. Lovecraft and this one focusses on the pain of individual characters from those stories…
Reek of STOOM wrote: “Cthulhu IS DOOM and these Italian discuples deliver THE WORD in grisly, yet morbidly enchanting tomes…”
Frazer Jones wrote: “Lovecraftian themes lovingly explored over a backdrop of gloriously atmospheric epic flavoured doom metal.”
Joop Konraad wrote on Stoner HiVe: “We submit to the doomed hallucinations for five tracks and almost thirty minutes, and immediately recognize the slumbering take on doom metal for what is it. A way to conjure those ancient horrors to the surface and reveal the pain they bestow upon those tormented individuals.

The guitar in Black Lotus, with the rising sound behind it, touching on a more gothic approach to doom. They all weave the elements needed to follow the characters through their ordeal. And those vocals, that almost recite, like an elderly town crier, causes the doom metal to almost feel like dangerous whispers in the dark. For lovers Cthulhuism a must hear doom metal tale… “ (Read more HERE)
Their own words: ” Starspawn of Cthulhu is a Lovecraft themed Doom Metal band born in Vicenza, Italy, in late 2019. The line-up is formed by Roberto Biasin and Domenico Groppo. The Cursed Vision is our third album. We focused these songs on the pain of single characters from Lovecraft’s tales, singing the cosmic horror they face through every struggle.”
