This album opens with a brand new song showcasing the band in the zenith of their career. This is funeral doom the way it is meant to be, but Shape Of Dispair manage to make it sound almost catchy at the same time, no mean feat! From the bright, blood-red doomsday sun glow of the said song, 'Sleeping Murder', it is time to preceed deep down to the vale of shadows. And shadows, they sure are plentiful here. Whether it is the rehearsal track from ten years ago (time flies swiftly on black wings!) or the promo tracks dating from 1998, the deternimation and aim of the band shines through clear as ice. 7 tracks. Spikefarm Records. 2005.

专辑介绍：
Vali 是挪威音乐人 Vali 以自己名字命名的个人乐队(他不愿透露自己的真实姓名, 仅以 Vali 为名), 风格以民谣为基调, 乐器也多使用原声吉它, 钢琴, 长笛, 大提琴, 以及小提琴. 在它的身上, 似乎能看见另一个 Empyrium 的影子, 它们都是在在北欧漫漫寒夜里成长, 不过, Empyrium 大抵是站在黑暗的中心, 而 Vali 至少是与月光有过约定的...
2003年底, Vali 在 Soundclick 上传了一首小样, 之后不久, Foreshadow 就来联系他了, 2004年 Vali 在 Foreshadow Productions 旗下发行首张专辑 Forlatt. Forlatt 的意思是 "被遗弃的", 专辑的音乐如同从黑森林最幽深黑暗的中心流淌而出的涓涓细流, 在森林边缘的月光下的晶莹水光, 映照出的却是另一个仙境梦影. 这张专辑的反响极好, 许多人争相收藏.
2006年初, Vali 与 Prophecy 的分支厂牌 Auerbach 签定了五张专辑的唱片合同.
Vali 是 Vali 的首次音乐尝试. 不过在 "Forlatt" 发行的前后, 他作为吉它手与歌手 Cecilie 一起成立了名为 Skumring 的厄运金属乐队. 2004 年发行了首张 Demo, 首张专辑 De glemte tider 于2005年4月在 Aftermath Music 厂牌下发行. 这支乐队一直处于不太稳定的状态, 2004年的那张DEMO录制完成后, 鼓手 Knut 离开了. 2006年初节奏吉它手 Ole 也离开了, 至今仍未找到适合的新队员.
Vali 个人很喜欢 Ulver 1996年的专辑 Kveldssanger. 他喜欢的乐队还有 Manic Street Preachers, Emperor, Estatic Fear, Mr. Bungle, Empyrium, Bethlehem, Saturnus, Radiohead, Anathema, My Dying Bride, Funeral, Nobuo Uematsu, Mystic Forest...(转自豆瓣muta的评论)

Frowning was founded in January 2011, impressed by Funeral Doom bands like Pantheist and Evoken Val wrote the first song: Day In Black. Then a few other songs came (Death Song, The Vicious Circle). But they all just were uploads on youtube. In Autumn 2013 Frowning decided to make a Split-EP with the british Doomband "Aphonic Threnody". The Split came out in April 2014 and is called "Aphonic Threnody VS. Frowning Of Graves, of Worms and Epitapths". The CD was released under the russian label GSP-music. After that EP the californian label Wretched Records asked for a contract - Frowning signed. Now the debutalbum "Funeral Impressions" is coming and will be released in 25th Oct 2014 under Wretched Records.

Inspired by Herman Melville's classic Moby Dick, the German trio Ahab, which includes Christian Hector and Daniel Droste of Midnattsol, debut with the perfect soundtrack: An unrelenting odyssey into the depths of the human soul. Sluggish Doom Metal, complete with the heaviest of riffs and uncompromising vocals, intertwines with powerful Death Metal and isolated moments of melodic interludes to distinguish Ahab's sound. Far removed from commercialism and romance, Ahab's "Nautik" Funeral Doom celebrates brutality and utter despair.

The redesigned, and remastered 2002 version of SKEPTICISM's classic "Stormcrowfleet" is out! The sound on this album is huge, like an impressive vast monument... all songs move incredibly slow and create a very dark and depressive feeling... very soothing... a sort of ambient feel, that lets you drift away....

Cult doom metal on the Avant Garde label. Details TBA.
