Product Description

Artist: SWALLOW THE SUN Title: Ghosts of Loss Format: LP Country: Finland Genre: Doom Metal Record Label: Firebox From Finland (which appears to be the new metal capital), Swallow The Sun offers the hotly-anticipated follow-up to their acclaimed debut. Total doom/death perfection, with sorrowful, gothic overtones and a tighter sense of direction than their already very impressive debut. Gatefold Double LP Tracklisting: 1. The Giant 11:55 2. Descending Winters 06:11 3. Psychopath's Lair 05:51 4. Forgive Her... 09:02 5. Fragile 07:12 6. Ghost of Laura Palmer 08:07 7. Gloom, Beauty and Despair 08:45 8. The Ship 08:55 Total playing time 01:05:59 Review: David E. Gehlke [blistering.com] Wrought with more dark and darker tones than before, Finlands Swallow The Sun face the dubious task of bettering their debut album, The Morning Never Came. As echoed throughout the underground, The Morning Never Came was a melodic doom metal delight (er, downer) that captured the earthly vibe and spirit of the masters themselves, My Dying Bride. With Ghosts Of Loss, Swallow The Sun do very little to separate themselves from their debut, opting to produce an album that carries much of the same weight and results... Ghosts Of Loss succeeds in becoming the second Swallow The Sun album dark enough to block out the most glowing of suns.
