Helevorn's Forthcoming Displeasures has left me with a permanent expression of delicate horror, as if I am reaching for the last, receding glimpses of pure air left to breathe on our forgotten planet. There is a thick, personal focus here, and a balance of inner struggle and angering frustrations with a silent vision of the haunting sadness that has seemingly engulfed everyone else's eyes. Helevorn has offered an album for those who knowingly or unknowingly mourn for humanity and for each other, perhaps even wanting to change it all, but feel hope becoming ever more distant as they live trapped in passivity.

Rarely does an album make me feel nostalgic for the human race at the same time that I forsake all hope in it. Solidly crafted and produced, complete with thoughtful and personal lyrics and melodies, Helevorn offer us a somber experience into the withering of us all. dismaleuphony's picks | More picks ›› |

My recent addiction Great non-cheesy Gothic Doom 
---- He who is not bold enough to be stared at from across the abyss is not bold enough to stare into it himself.

Another wicked good album, with excelent vocals and a stunning atmosphere The closing song "On Shores (Of a Dying Sea)" could not be better, as on the end is slowly fades away
