Legendary Brazilian Doom Metal act THE CROSS will be releasing its second full-length five
years after the bands debut. THE CROSS is recognised as the first doom metal band in Brazil
founded in Salvador - Bahia by Eduardo Slayer Mota in 1990 with the band's sound and style
inspired by bands such as Black Sabbath Candlemass and Trouble. In the bands own words: Our
album describes the new age of The Cross. We feel like weve finally reached our perfect line-up
and this album shows it by itself. Act II is an album written in the middle of the pandemic
with every member working separately and when we finally managed to be together everything
simply clicked. The album deals with a variety of mythological and historical themes
Lovecraft-inspired themes and also inner suffering. Act II: Walls of the Forgotten features a
number of notable guests all of whom vastly contributing to the overall result: Albert Bell
(FORSAKEN NOMAD SON) Leo Stivala (FORSAKEN) Achraf Loudiy (AETERNAM) and last but certainly
not least Aaron Stainthorpe (MY DYING BRIDE).
