NEW: the total doom of The Wounded Kings (U.K.): Consolamentum (Candlelight Records)

The Wounded Kings (U.K.): Consolamentum (Candlelight Records)

The Wounded Kings specializes in slow, depressing funeral doom, the kind that makes Tony Iommi seem like a speed metal blazing shredder. Sit down and relax because this will take a while and it is going to be slow, all day, every day. Depression, melancholy, funerals, cemeteries, loneliness and mourning; crawling riffs topped off with the (clear) singing of despair. I have been listening to this album a lot and I am ready for the end of the universe and it’s no problem because The Wounded Kings says everything is meaningless anyway. The Wounded Kings is cult doom metal strictly for fanatics of the genre, I think. It's an accomplished album. Believe.
