Songs of Longing

by The Bleak Picture

supported by

Unhallowed Remains From the word go, this EP just oozes atmosphere and class. The prominent traditional goth guitar riffs with doom death vocals take you on journey through the sort of beautiful bleakness that the band have crafted. One listen and I purchased it! Its simply brilliant and you should have this in your collection. The fact that the band call it a demo only adds to my desire to hear a full length release from this project. I Cant recommend this enough! Favorite track: The Dead Beginners.

Damp Chill of Life
by NONE

supported by 10 fans who also own “Songs of Longing”

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert

The Funeral Pyre
by KVAEN

supported by 10 fans who also own “Songs of Longing”

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
