Whoa their new release – Conqueror, totally blew me away last week.

They play in the subgenre, or better to say genre of traditional doom metal. If you remember Black Sabbath, they were the inventors of traditional doom metal. It is slow and bit epic music focused on some occult and fantasy themes. And it really slays!

A lot of people discuss trends and mainstream and also the metal underground. This band proves that metal underground is not dead. It is not just alive and breathing it can even prove that they are much better than the standard cloned mtv bands. This release is based on the famous Conan series and is musically similar to this good old-school battle fantasy.

Not like new doom, traditional doom metal is a bit faster, not so depressive and as for me more interesting due to homage to real good bands like Black Sabbath and Pentagram. Yeah it will take you a while to get used to the sound, but when you’ll get used to it you will see that this is a great music for both work and relaxation. It really breathes with the spirit of old rock combining it with the good old gloomy vintage fantasy.

    Cool site. Keep up the good work but you could kick back on the “old-school battle fantasy” ;-)
