First up are Italians Trinakrius who I've never even heard of although this is their fourth album. They sound really good though. Playing my kind of doom which means it ain't actually really doomy sounding. It's like epic melodic speedy doom with colourful melodic vocals. The medley on youtube sounds really nice.
Second band is melodic doom/power metal band making a return after 5 years. Memory Garden were sort of an interesting classic power/doom band whose album Mirage is still in my collection. However I never liked anything else from the band and I didn't even hear the last album from 2008. Anyway the new song sounds good although the singer is just not strong enough. Imagine Rob Lowe belting this song out or even Messiah. Musically though the band is very pleasant on the ear with warm midpaced riffs and a very morose and deep solo section. I'm never gonna be a huge lover of this type of music however mournful epic melodies are always hard to resist when done well so I hope the album turns out good. A few of you doomsters should be happy with this one.
