Sinister Realm
Epic, underground metal has been a staple in America for years, and
in the past labels like
Hell's Headbangers
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.
