Who Dies In Siberian Slush - Bitterness Of The Years That Are Lost



So, I only discovered these yesterday, but listening now for the fourth time in 16 hours. Absolutely magnificent 'funeral doom' from Russia, along the lines of Esoteric, Catacombs, Torture Wheel and the like, but a little less overpowering and all consuming. Maybe with a few hints of early Anathema and My Dying Bride for want of better, less monolithic style comparisons. This is still pretty monstrous, bigger fans of the style could probably give more exacting comparisons, but, hopefully that'll give you a vague picture and you'll download...

... and then, buy this album! This is their first one, and hopefully this will help their word be spread a lot quicker, as they deserve to be known on a worldwide scale to all your doomers!

It might be a BIT gothic for some folks. There's pianos! Oooo! There are some awesome harmonies and gut wrenching passages in this, so, doom on.
