DEEPER GRAVES Channels Subtle TYPE O NEGATIVE Vibe On Haunting New Track "Over My Shoulder"

Jeff Wilson has never been short on creative outlets, but Deeper Graves remains his most inward-looking. The solo project — a stark counterpoint to his work in Chrome Waves, Contrition, and formerly Nachtmystium and Wolvhammer — continues its slow descent with Pull Me Toward The Dark, due digitally February 27 via Disorder Recordings.

One of the album's most striking moments arrives in "Over My Shoulder," a track Wilson describes as something of an unexpected outlier: "It's a bit of an oddball for this project," Wilson explains. "I never really had the intention of ripping a Type O vibe here, but once the 'solo' was laid down, I dug my heels in and went with it."

He adds: "And as inferior as it is to any of the band's material, I hope this subtle tribute proves their legacy will live way beyond all of us."

Entirely self-performed, engineered, recorded, mixed, mastered, and even visually realized by Wilson — who also handled the album's cover art and photography — Pull Me Toward The Dark is a solitary work in the truest sense.

Fans of Beastmilk, Killing Joke, Joy Division, and The Sisters of Mercy will find familiar spirits in Deeper Graves' slow-moving, atmospheric post-punk, though Wilson is less interested in nostalgia than reinterpretation. Pre-orders for Pull Me Toward The Dark are available here.
