But, the time is additionally spent allowing the lead guitar to, well, take the lead and forge a path with high-pitched harmonics and clean tones. Yet, on “Tortured by Time,” the riffs are heavy and dirgy. They are reaching beyond that single-dimension tag. This track is certainly not as abrasive or demonic as Cathedral or gruff as Reverend Bizarre, showing that Spirit Adrift will boldly dispose of doom tropes. “Tortured by Time” is another blazing example. Some harmonic tricks pierce the speakers and capture listeners early.

“Born into Fire” brandishes an evil tone, like Sabbath/Dio, but is heavier and crunchier. After a more classic, rocking first track, the title track and “Born into Fire” hit in succession with crisp, monstrous doom riffs. While it is true that Spirit Adrift expand beyond the simple moniker of the doom genre, their impressive doom chops should not be discounted. The lofty goals are achieved with the ethereal atmosphere laid bare, especially on “Living Light.” Divided by Darkness exhibits grander choices than the prior two albums, as instruments play with layered textures of ascending metallic aspirations manifesting into sophisticated compositions. The musicianship, Garrett’s and others’, are exemplary. On stage, Spirit Adrift’s lineup is comprised of Nathan Garrett on vocals and guitar, Marcus Bryant on drums, Chase Mason on bass, and Jeff Owens on guitar.” In 2017, Garrett expanded with more musicians, members of Gatecreeper and Goya, to tour and blow minds.ĭivided by Darkness, however, boasts, “Garrett, handling all lead and harmony vocals, guitar, and bass, with drums handled by Marcus Bryant, and features synth and Wurlitzer by Preston Bryant and choral vocals on “Living Light” by Kayla Dixon. Since 2016, the one-man wonder Nathan Garrett, has been writing and recording driving, doom-based metal blended with soaring harmonies and NWOBHM elements.
