The fourth Woewarden full-length album The Roots Of My Neglect is the natural successor to their previous work but is intentionally more visceral. Woewarden have maintained the melodic, melancholic approach to depressive black metal inspired by the likes of Silencer, Psychonaut 4, and Insomnium but they have injected a heavier, more abrasive edge reminiscent of the raw torment and fury of 90s Scandinavian legends like Dissection and Emperor.
Musically, this has allowed them to push the contrasts of their songwriting further. In one breath, the arrangements deliver some of the heaviest passages to date; in the next, they are bittersweet, embroiled in vocals ranging from maniacal wails and throat chants to screams of anguish and haunting croons. It is an exploration of neglect, both self-inflicted and external, and the rot that settles when hope is finally abandoned.
