Novembers Doom has been proclaimed as the American answer to
the British forefathers of doom metal (Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and
Anathema) and have been given a lot of attention in the metal press during the
last couple of years. The bands from Dark Symphonies are usually very
difficult to get into but this is one of their bands whose music I have had
the pleasure of being able to absorb fully, or at least I´m under that
impression. Sorry guys (and girl) but you´re not quite capable of competing
with the big three, at least not yet. That doesn´t mean that Novembers Doom is
a lousy band though. They still have the capacity of producing very
atmospheric and emotional music designed to touch the inner core of your soul
which is the trademark of Dark Symphonies as I see it. The music is not very
fast nor technical but somehow a sad and melancholic feeling is produced.
Despair, grief, passion and other strong emotions are the rulers of this album
and songs like "Silent Tomorrow" and "Last God" makes the name Novembers
Doom stick to your mind for at least a couple of months. One final warning
though for those not familiar with the Dark Symphonies catalogue: their
releases are definitely not easy-listened and if you´re faint-hearted don´t
try this one.
