Sinister Realm
Epic, underground metal has been a staple in America for years, and
in the past labels like
?
provided fans with several great bands.
Nowadays labels like
Shadow Kingdom
are the ones responsible
for giving bands like this the outlet they need, and in Sinister
Realm we have a fine example of underground American metal.
While doom is the base here, this is not ponderous,
first-album-Sabbath doom, but rather a more contemporary epic/doom
style,
much like the stuff the old classic DC Hellhound
bands did back in the nineties.
This is a solid album through and through, with the standout track
being "The Nihilist", due to a more uptempo riff and a strong chorus.
Good stuff here, and again kudos to Shadow Kingdom for releasing this.
