| THE SULLEN SULCUS Review |
Mourning Beloveth 'The Sullen Sulcus' Aftermath knows the art of selecting solid and special doom metal. Here
the company is on its way with another classic, close to Runemagicks two
brilliant albums. Mourning Beloveth is like the Swedes in the doom/death
genre, this time from Ireland, and "The Sullen Sulcus" is a
album that have blown me away recently, if you can say that of music so
heavy and depressive as this. Everything is done correct here. The production,
courtesy of Mags in The Academy, is cleaner than newly fallen snow. The
music is heavier than a pregnant elephant. The vocals more death than
the end of life. The songs so slow like a week old snot. (ED: If that
is the word for what's inside your nose ? Err...Don`t know the English
word for that, sorry!). This is doom with death vocals we haven`t heard
since the early nineties, and I am looking for comparisons. Think about
My Dying Bride with extra heaviness and power and you are getting closer.
There are also clean vocals here, and the guy doing this could have sung
in any power metal band. Enough said, this is the album for everyone with
a sense for heaviness should own! Tell me you are a doom fan and you don`t
like this one, and I will give you speed metal for the rest of your life!
