Andy K. Just noticed at the bottom of the page these dudes split up in 21. Sorry to hear that. I would have loved to hear more like this.

IntenselyNick If music is an ocean this album would be the mariana trench!! Favorite track: The Undoing.
Sonny92

Sonny92 A powerful dose of classic-sounding doom metal with impressively strong clean vocals from Ilkka Haavisto. The rhythm section of ex-Lord Vicar bassist Jussi Myllykoski and drummer Ville Vierimaa, former main man of Umbra Nihil, lay down an ultra-heavy base for Jussi Parkkali's oozingly creeping riffs. Shouldn't disappoint any fans of finnish doom metal.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) Cavernous guitar tones, strong clean vocals and an ass kicking rhythm section holding it all together, what's not to like? Favorite track: Figures in a Terrain.
Reek Of STOOM

Reek Of STOOM Debilitating Doom as slow as the Pulse of Cthulhu! Favorite track: In Its Absence.

Hazy figures are running Always on the move They are hiding and searching To avoid their doom Something blocking the way They disperse and sway To emerge and join again In another place Figures running Disperse. Sway. Emerge. Again. Emerge. Again. Figures in a terrain always on the move Looking over their shoulders Destined for the grave
2.
Rallies in Rage Screaming vicious lines He owns them all Fear, fraud, lies Treats for the lost Unaware of the cost He throws bones Buys the way Clear the aisle he's here Applaud and hear his vow See the crown it's real We failed to save our time Now we’re amazed By the ranks of the fool Induced to. Fall in line Marching begins For appalling cause He owns them all Fear, fraud, lies Raise the crown Praise the clown now Clear the aisle hear his vow now

Can you hear him rumble, all the Faint steps from above He's the man who is stuck now and his life is in the past I'm the man in the attic I turn in once a day I don't ask for much now I am here to stay From the mist appeared A desperate man on the run Just remember your sister He's the one to see her drown I'm the man in the attic I turn in once a day I'm the one who ran away now I am here to stay I wanted him reminded of that unending guilt We found his body hanging Yet we hear him say: I'm the man in the attic I turn in once a day I'm the one who ran away now we're all here to stay

Marrow 04:37
Your ivory paleness weighing heavy On my shoulder, stay there steady I'll carry you to a forest clearing There's a shallow hole in the ground a heap of roots torn from the earth Cast shadows like a pile of bones and antlers Fir branch to mark this place of sadness You were found in a forest clearing Like an Indian charnel ground a heap of roots torn from the earth Crack the bones, crack the bones get to marrow Scared people that trample in a stampede The tracks and leads dissolve in motion You were found in a forest clearing Like an Indian charnel ground a heap of roots torn from the earth Crack the bones, crack the bones get to marrow
5.
In its Absence Our dreams unfulfilled We who know the sanctity of blood We are silenced The flame extinguished The value of life not revealed A song within one's heart is mute A ritual without the blood is untrue There was a time When we rode through the barren land, Touched by the hand of god Where ever we passed a trail of death the sanctity of blood revealed A song within one's heart is mute A ritual without the blood is untrue Time and again manifest death Lust for blood, a mandate from below What ever the reason Now forgotten Oh how we lived, it was a gift to us A song within one's heart is mute A ritual without the blood is untrue
6.
The Undoing 06:47
In the corner of my eye Maybe in the shadows It could be true that you were there I am the undoing Personal downfall I'll never let this pass Your life is worth nothing You're as good as dead now I will undo you There's no way back Oh meaningless entity Your life is a waste I'll take you to where you've never been I am the undoing Personal downfall I'll never let this pass Your life is worth nothing You're as good as dead now I will undo you There's no way back
