^ Now that is a good band. I've only got draining the waterheart, but its awesome

I heard the whole song (it's only one 30ish min song, right?) on a Finnish radio broadcast a few weeks ago, and was blown away. Absolutely the best they've done since The Morning Never Came, which was masterful!

Yeah, "Morning Never Came" is excellent. The melodic guitars is what impressed me the most about that album. Good band.

I like The Morning Never Came the most, I found it in a local recordstore and I was like "WTF!!?!?!?!" usualy they dont have metal CD's. Ghost of Loss is good to but I find Hope boring. But the small parts from the next album that I've heard sounds really good. More black-ish.

First off, what kind of style is Swallow the Sun? I'm trying to broaden my music taste.
Second, where can I find some?

 

[stefan86]

Melodic Doom/Death metal pretty much.

Question two: On the interwebnetz?

 

[Lightbulb Sun]

Daylight Dies, Daconian maybe?

I quite like them. Are they groundbreakingly original??? Hell no, but what they do (melodic doom, in the most simplified term I can think of), they do quite well, IMO. The Morning Never Came is excellent, as is Hope.

 

[winters epilogue]

I love about 80% of what the band puts out. Every record there seems to be a song or two, or at least a section in a song that just seems really boring. Nonetheless, I'm quite excited for the new EP. I think they could really go somewhere with some refinement.

To stefan's point, The Justice of Suffering is easily of their top five best tracks.

Thank you sir, or thank mr. Renkse?
