Hailing from Austin, Texas, USA, Like Sorrow is the latest blend of Black Metal brought to you by Marc Williams. Beginning in 2023, Like Sorrow was originally a side project that has become and is becoming much more. Marc wanted a more straightforward Black Metal sound while keeping his signature melodic playing intact. This resulted in a sound that is somewhere between earlier Throes of Dawn, Agathodaimon or perhaps even a bit of Naglfar thrown into the mix. Lyrical concepts include subjects like ghosts, Hell, and sadness.
2023 saw the release of the first Like Sorrow EP titled “Realm of Despair” which was released digitally and on cassette by Rotting Sun Records. Throughout late 2023 and 2024, Marc released another four songs as singles. This was all released as a single package titled “A Collection of Despair (2023-2024)” which was first made available January 22, 2025.
While the original eight songs do not contain any of the noticeable keyboards from Marc’s other works, this is soon to change in the future. Like Sorrow will continue to bring the extreme melancholic sound and melodic passages that fans have been drawn to. A chilling blend of Black Metal that is sure to tarnish the soul and please the ghosts that lurk in the shadows.
