When last we left Shattered Hope, I was asked to review their 2007 Promo... a two track, 20 minute release morphing of traditional doom with some death/doom vocals reminiscent of Officium Triste. Now it's 2010 and they are back with a vengeance. Ok, maybe not a vengeance necessarily, but they are back with a full-length release, Absence. Seven tracks spanning an hour of pure dooming satisfaction. Read more ›› |

so i've teased, tormented and tantalized you with a review of an album you could not have... Until Now. It's a Festivus miracle. If you like yer doom slow, drawn out, growly, and HELLenic, you know what to do. BitterCOld's picks | More picks ›› |

Great death doom album from Greece!! Reminds me the old days of anathema with Darren! Very atmospheric and dark!

Great album. I'm inclined to agree with BitterCOld's review score in this case.

Who are these guys? Discovered them only recently. Not much old Anathema for me. But certainly a hell of an album. Solid 8 right away after two spins (which doesnt happen often for me). Will give them a couple of more chances. See where it gets. Hope the successor wont be too much of a disappointment for me.

Good bleak doom. Reminds me a lot of Swallow The Sun at point.
