Gloria Tore Through Hard Rock Anatomy with Dark Prog-Rock Anthem ‘CATACLYSM’

The airwaves will need to brace themselves for impact on September 19th when Gloria release CATACLYSM, a meteoric rock juggernaut that toys with the anatomy of a hard rock anthem while tearing into darker terrain with distorted prog-rock flourishes. The conspiracy theorists might say Ozzy passed his Prince of Darkness crown to Yungblud, but after hearing CATACLYSM, Gloria sound far more deserving of a throne in the seven-ringed pantheon. What makes CATACLYSM a reckoning is the way Gloria alchemise scuzzy 80s undertones into a track fit for contemporary unrest. The riffs aren’t just designed to rattle heads, they carry a cerebral edge, finding fresh pathways through breakdowns that refuse to follow convention. It’s as though the Seattle sound has been pulled through the fire and given a baptism in something far more sinister. Gloria, a five-piece from the North West of England, has built a reputation for reinvention with their chameleonic approach to rock. CATACLYSM solidifies their talent for harnessing heavy nostalgia while dragging it into a modern framework that feels reverently destructive. It’s unholy in all the ways you’d want prodigal sons of rock to be. CATACLYSM is now available on all major streaming platforms via this link.
