Written in the aftermath of the loss of several loved ones, including bassist Peter Chromiak in 2022, the album is shaped by themes of grief, depression, and loss. Across six tracks, SPLENDIDULA blends black metal and doom with fragile atmospheric passages, drenched in grief and sorrow. Guest contributions by Aaron Stainthorpe (MY DYING BRIDE, HIGH PARASITE) and Tim Yatras (AUSTERE, GERM) lend the album even deeper emotional weight. https://splendidula.bandcamp.com/music ASHTORETH (Ambient / Drone) A project in search of a shamanistic perspective, at times channeling minimal, meditative drones, and at others a catharsis of doom, noise, and experimentation, touching upon folk, post-rock, psychedelia, and more. Always in a free form. https://ashtoreth1.bandcamp.com/ SUNKEN (Atmospheric Black Metal) This Danish band have been unfolding their dark, melancholic, depressive soundscapes and ethereal melodies on the European scene since 2012. Exploring topics such as hopelessness, apathy, depression and anger, Sunken’s music convey deep and personal emotions resulting in an all-encompassing and overwhelmingly immersive live-experience. https://sunkendenmark.bandcamp.com MY LAMENT (Doom / Death Metal) Hailing from Antwerp (BE), the band have carved their name deep into the doom/death scene. With their latest release “The Season Came Undone” (Ardua Music, 2023), they’ve elevated their sound to new emotional and musical heights, with the album being met with strong reception and critical praise. https://mylament.bandcamp.com/music ▃▃ FOODTRUCK Philicious: burgers (also veggie) - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/oudenaarde/absentia-in-the-church-splendidula-album-release-w-thy-light-and-more/200029936542257 - **Event Categories**: Music, Entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Oudenaarde - **state**: OV - **country**: Belgium - **location**: GC het Marca - **lat**: 50.816009511125 - **long**: 3.653893574625 - **full address**: GC het Marca, Maarkeweg 76, 9680 Maarkedal, België, Oudenaarde, Belgium ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Absentia in the church - Splendidula album release w/ Thy Light & more - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/2ae7ad4da387e50f714d96726b800a36bde2cc4a7c5a1c8cf4fd70c501300be2-rimg-w1200-h675-dc14131a-gmir?v=1776071396 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Absentia in the church - Splendidula album release w/ Thy Light & more being held? - **A:** Absentia in the church - Splendidula album release w/ Thy Light & more takes place on Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 11:55 pm at GC het Marca, Maarkeweg 76, 9680 Maarkedal, België, Oudenaarde, Belgium. - **Q**: Who is organizing Absentia in the church - Splendidula album release w/ Thy Light & more? - **A:** Absentia in the church - Splendidula album release w/ Thy Light & more is organized by Splendidula. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
