Gods Tower - The Turns

[Krilons Resa]

Tracklist

1. Intro/The Turns
2. I Am The Raven
3. Seven Rains Of Fire
4. Twilight Sun
5. An Eye For An Eye
6. Rising Arrows
7. Blood
8. Mysterious

This is some kickass, rough, Bathory-esque Heathen Doom Metal I just recently came across. I figured I'd make a thread about them since many on this forum would probably really enjoy this little known band from Belarus. They also have The Eerie, which came out before this one which rules as well. Their last one, which the name escapes me at the moment isn't all that great and is more of a fuckaround album than anything...I mean they have a cover of The Final Countdown. wtf?! Anyways. spikes77 can back me up on this recommendation.

 

[Eminor]

Cool, thanks. I'll check these out tomorrow.

This band is so great and unique it's a crime they are so unknown. The guitars are very good, and the vocals are quite dynamic. Some epic doom pagan metal?! This is their first album.

title track from the above album, alittle slow but has some nice atmosphere.

let's get this out of the way before i listen

with that name -- they're not CHRISTIANS are they

 

[Erik]

yeah so let's not then

it KICKS ASS

 

[spikes77]

I believe they're more pagan (certainly nothing preachy if they're not..just read the lyrics) most of their lyrics deal with battle and dieing, and some in some instances mention god'S..but i have not read any interview to be sure. they still rule face even with a suspect name.

 

[Erik]

yeah they sure seem to have the whole "pagan" thing going there

good!

 

[IOfTheStorm]

I downloaded "Rising Arrows". It's VERY good, but the vocals are kinda ugly. Dont prevent me for buying it anyway. Also about the influences - more Manowar than anything. But they sound kinda unique indeed.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yeah, the vocals are VERY rough. I think it fits the music/atmosphere/whole vibe though and gives it that battle feel. I also agree with the early Manowar influences.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

Second time i'm listening to it, and i already get used to the vocals, they fit the music perfectly yes. A Deathmaster oriented voice would be awesome too. The song rules.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yeah, that would be orgasmic.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I will definitely be checking this out, thx!

 

[Krilons Resa]

word

 

[Krilons Resa]

this shit rules.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

yeah, this shit is pretty awesome, but I haven't had much time to lsiten to it, i've got mp3's and samples and shit flooding my inboxes and MSN convos and shit.

 

[Johanna]

I like this and now Im going to be lazy and just ask you where I could buy this cause I cant be bothered to search for myself.... uh yeah so where can I get my hands on this exactly?

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

she's back! and has a kickass saying in her sig!!

no clue where, and im too busy to search.

 

[einride]

i don't remember ever listening to this back in the day (maybe i did, briefly? i can't remember) but i've had this band on my mental to-check-out list for so many years

anyway now i'm listening to it and it's so good and unique.

what im trying to say is thanks for the reco

 

[J.]

I still listen to this band on a regular basis. Even the newest one, Steel Says Last (dumbest title ever, yes I understand they are Belarusian, but still....) is really good.
