Last album was a tad underwhelming. Hopefully this will be better!

I hope they make those epic more than 10 minute tracks again

Yay, another Katatclone-ia album. Personally I've lost interest in the band after the shit they spouted on their Facebook a while back.

Shame how a once great band veered off into first Paradise Lost clone and now Kataclonia territory.

They had a massive bitchfest at basically every band that sounded vaguely blackened doom and accused them of ripping them off / being untrve because they seemed to think they invented the genre. Not even an exaggeration.

DSBM, not blackened doom.

Hilarious that

Abyssic Hate might as well have said that every dsbm band and such should be worshipping them for releasing Suicidal Emotions in 2000 (so three years before Springtime Depression)

And Shining had already released three albums of which especially II and III are considered true classics within the dsbm genre

It's especially rich coming from them seeing how much they ape other bands these days and don't even have their own sound anymore.

Oh shit I am forgetting Dolorian - When All the Laughter Has Gone which is even from 1999.

Seems Forgotten Tomb was already following trends and other bands back when they still released good music.

Could even go back as far as Bethlehem's Dark Metal.

Yep and also Dictius Necare and to a slightly lesser extent S.U.I.Z.I.D.. All three way before Springtime Depression

It's meaningless to debate endlessly over who invented a particular style; genres/styles are often born through continuous evolution, both divergent and convergent - not a singular path of descent.

Forgotten Tomb should forget about defending their (negative) megalomania, and spend their energy creating the best music they can, regardless of sub-genre tags, in lieu of tastelessly criticizing others for "stealing their sound" just because they happen to share their "niche" aesthetically.

^ That pun >.<

Everybody likes puns.

Or even further back to Strid's End of Life. I lost a significant amount of respect for Forgotten Tomb after reading that post.

Yep. This is why I'm in no hurry to get to know band members of bands I like.

I don't blame you. I'm surprised at all the thoughtless support that post got.

It would be hard to carry on liking a band after hearing them say arrogant shit like that, but then again people will happily listen to good nsbm bands knowing all stupid the they go on about
