For their debut album "Nullpunkt", COLDSPINE developed their individual style and sound of Doom/ Sludge Metal. The full length record consists of 9 tracks and has a total runtime of 46 minutes. The songs differ from very slow Doom territory (title track "Nullpunkt", "To The Ground"), sludgy mid-tempo groove ("Odd", "Torture Rack") to faster approaches, riffs and rhythms ("Among Serpents", "Misery Routine"). Furthermore, the band puts some atmospheric elements into their music while also using clean guitar sounds and noise parts ("Regression", "Minus") as well as a dose of dissonance in their riffs. The vocals and lyrics (written in English and German) support the deep atmosphere of the music. The Album was mixed and mastered by Blackout Studio (Belgium).
This leads to a high dynamic range and variety while experiencing the record in its entirety. Overall, with "Nullpunkt" COLDSPINE offer a diverse, varied debut record in which the band adapts elements of multiple subgenres without losing their musical roots in the Doom/ Sludge genre.
For the handpainted artwork, the band worked together with local artist Lisa Schroeder (Instagram: lisaschroeder.art). The artwork represents the bleak, dismal character of the songs and especially the name/ title of the album "Nullpunkt", which symbolizes being at your lowest point in a metaphoric way.
