Consisting of 6 songs, and nearly 52 minutes of musical splendour, 'Soulchambers' is truly a journey into an uncharted world, one skilfully created and shared with the listener by a band that obeys no boundaries. Atmospheric post metal/sludge at its finest and most daring, Trysth's debut album is crushingly heavy, full of intricate nuances, and trance-inducing compositions.
Self-released by the band as lavish 6-panel digipak CD with additional booklet.

Press quotes:
"Soulchambers sounds quite apocalyptic and harrowing in places. The slow build/release mechanics that form the core of Post-Metal rub shoulders with the simpler miseries of Doom and the grim edginess of Sludge. The end result is an album of pits and troughs, lows and highs, ebbs and flows; an album that reaches for more whilst strengthening and safeguarding its central identity of desolate and bleak landscapes populated by oases of life and vitality. For fans of Neurosis, Cult of Luna, Isis and the rest. Basically, for fans of thoughtful, heavy music. If you like this style then this is a must. What an album! (Wonderbox Metal)"
"...in their sonic strategy, Trysth have thought and planned every single move accordingly—should dissuade you from the quotidian expectation that metal is imminently the music of desperation and inherent desolation. If you are looking for your weekly dose of transcendence, purifying hatred or cathartic simplicity, this is not your music. Trysth take you to a journey somewhere between the meditative and the raging. If you hope not to feel hope, Trysth are not for you. Instead of the impasse of desperation, there is the road to transformation, expressive of reality’s terror, an expression that makes us face not the speculations about the wind, but the wind with all of its sweeps. And this is precisely what Bataille’s inner experience meant: to be in contact with the real, you have to be open to disorderly transformations. The metal world’s sensitivity is too caught in the fetishisation of darkness (it desires it). I dare say that Trysth offer us expressions of our souls’ mystical meanderings (they express them). You cannot achieve this without a holistic approach, and 'Soulchambers' is a singular experience of a totality captured, channeled through, and lived from A to Z. (Heathen Harvest Periodical)"
"In order to really enjoy Trysth’s album ‘Soulchambers’, you have to have some faith. As with any good music in the doom metal genre, there are some boring moments on the album if they’re taken out of context. When listened to as a cohesive bit of art, though, ‘Soulchambers’ is like a journey, always one step ahead of the listener, toying with them.(The Sludgelord)"
