There are few funeral doom bands out there that manage to express sorrow and despair in such a majestic and beautiful manner as Finland's SHAPE OF DESPAIR.
SHAPE OF DESPAIR’s latest full-length is a product of their environment, enveloping the listener in cold, eternal darkness like a lonely Finnish winter. And much like the long, funereal winters of their homeland, the atmosphere in ‘Return to the Void’ is bleak but ethereal.
The funeral doom icons do not merely offer a soundtrack to one’s agony, but also demonstrate the beauty that can often be found in misery.

The Swan Road is the third album by band Drudkh, released in 2005.
It is characterized by shorter songs and more prominent lyrics than are found on previous Drudkh releases with an increased use of distortion in the mix and more frequent usage of blast beats.
The lyrics are all taken from the epic poem Haydamaky, by Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko, about the Ukrainian anti-Polish peasant rebellion of 1768.

Deep melancholy and ancient longing permeates the heart and soul of Ukrainian music.
DRUDKH capture that precious essence of sadness in their brand of Slavonic Pagan Metal. The cinematic, folk influenced music of “Microcosmos” focuses on luxuriant atmospheres charged with strong emotions. Lyrically DRUDKH delve into nature mysticism, the passing of seasons, philosophy, Ukrainian mythology, legends and history – often inspired by the works of nineteenth and twentieth century Ukrainian poets.
“Microcosmos” is the magical seventh album since their acclaimed debut “Forgotten Legends” (2003).
Enter this realm of dark Slavonic melancholy!

Step into the realm of avant-garde metal with Tamás Kátai's visionary project: Thy Catafalque.
For over two decades, Thy Catafalque has been masterfully pioneering left-field extreme metal music. The journey continues with Thy Catafalque’s sophomore masterpiece ‘Microcosmos’, a revelation that delicately balances the dichotomy between black metal and avant-garde artistry.
Originally released in 2001, this album explores structured thematic elements inspired by space and the vast cosmos. A sonic expedition that maintains the restless abrasion of tremolo-picked dyads and subtly mixed-in blast beats, while retaining the psychedelic sounding sings that flesh out Thy Catafalque’s signature sound.
Now, in a momentous revival, Season of Mist proudly presents the official reissue of ‘Microcosmos’, ensuring that this groundbreaking work is preserved for posterity. Fans, both seasoned and new, can delve into the intricacies of Kátai's visionary compositions, experiencing the fusion of aggression and artistry that defines Thy Catafalque.

With the new album 'Meta', the ever-evolving THY CATAFALQUE transforms once again. The Hungarian progressive/experimental metal project, helmed by composer, lyricist, and multi-instrumentalist Tamás Kátai, takes a heavier, more direct tack than on last years sprawling 'Sgùrr'. Katai effortlessly weaves idiosyncratic progressive passages and folk melodies through this [much] heavier and more metallic album. THY CATAFALQUE's enduring unpredictability makes it one of metal's most unique bands, and 'Meta' is yet another distinct and indispensable piece of their integral catalog of albums.
