Cavernlight

**Cavernlight** is a Wisconsin-based atmospheric doom/sludge metal collective known for crafting immersive, emotionally heavy soundscapes. Formed around 2014, their work—including recent releases like *As I Cast Ruin Upon the Lens That Reveals My Every Flaw* and *The Ashes of Everything I’ve Failed to Be*—blends crushing instrumentation with introspective, often despairing themes. Their music feels like a slow-burn meditation on grief and impermanence, pairing raw vocals with glacial tempos and haunting ambient textures.

Though intentionally enigmatic, the band often collaborates with artists across mediums (visual art, poetry) to amplify their visceral live shows and recordings. They’ve built a cult following in the underground metal scene for their unflinching honesty and willingness to explore vulnerability through distortion. Releases like *The Black Crow* and *Gaze into the Glow…* solidify their reputation as purveyors of cathartic, soul-crushing doom.
