about
On February 7th, 2025 internationally, PERSONAL RECORDS is proud to present the highly anticipated debut album of Mexico's FUMES, Skeletal Wings Unleashed, on CD format.
The end of 2022 marks the year of gnosis of FUMES, a project made up of four entities as a need to express beyond words and simple sound the ideas of each of its members about darkness, violence, chaos, Death Worship, and true metal attack. As such, those four members - Isaías, Minos, Henry, and Alan - configured a cosmogony that they named FUMES, in honor of the ephemeral manifestations of darkness emanating from the fire that transforms matter.
Stellar Murder Upwards was the name of the first chaotic materialization in a triad of songs made beyond all ties and with the aim of expressing the sound aesthetics of Death. After some demonstrations of the compositions live, preparations for a full-length recording began, and Kamazotz was the result of the different congregations among the members, where the final element of FUMES was formally adopted: pre-Hispanism, since the macabre and worshipful vision of Death was something that the band recognized as an important point to highlight within itself.
Later, what is now known as Skeletal Wings Threshold was consolidated, composed of a dozen songs, including three passages without vocals, which help to understand this debut album as an artistic concept and not simply a debut album: it is a continuation of what was expressed in the EP, of the current situation within FUMES, of what was learned and assimilated on the path of darkness that they have already traced and traveled.
Black metal in name and deed but defiant of easily assimilated versions of "black metal," FUMES' first full-length is a conflagration of hideous energy and nuanced execution - of true Metal of Black that is caustic and classy in equal measure. Many might surmise that FUMES' metal attack is beholden to the Mexican tradition of sulfurous chaos; sulfur is surely present, but the band's exceptionally tight playing as well as adventurous riffing shows a refinement far beyond their domestic contemporaries, past and present. Skeletal Wings Threshold thus soars to startling heights, surveying a dread landscape that nevertheless retains a tunefulness uncharacteristic of classic black metal.

Infinite Mortality
by REPLICANTsupported by 13 fans who also own “Skeletal Wings Threshold”
Infinite Mortality has a real nice, buffed layer of filth to it. It's so perfect and so "bleh!" at the same time. No one wouldn't think to love it. It chugs perfectly but at any point might break out into some real sick death metal riffing. It riffs mightily but at any point those might devolve into a beautiful chug fest, and whether you like it or not you'll be brought right along with it into the dirt-perfect beauty. So Replicant seem to have something nice here, something nice for everyone.

Striving Toward Oblivion
by VORGAsupported by 13 fans who also own “Skeletal Wings Threshold”
so many gems in this album but after i went through this in order for my review, i kept returning to this anguished call to humanity, an emblem of despair in vast nothingness. a shred of hope dashed, as this album as a whole speaks to the annihilation of the ideals of humanity and the pedestals they sit on - and what happens when we watch all that shatter. there are plenty of outer space themed albums, but VORGA brings us something worth listening to.

Super cool album! It has that dark Ulcerate vibe while sounding uniquely different. Regarding the asinine comment by 269, it seems this shitstick learned his lesson and has never posted another comment. Good.
