Things We Leave Behind

elevendreams Where to begin?! Love the melodic vocals, the doom/death metal sound. Definitely has that 'Swedish' vibe in which I absolutely LOVE! Favorite track: Dead Ends.

Metalhamster Melodic DM with great production and some BM touches. Dead Ends is a masterpiece of a track. The rest of the record is good too, but doesn't quite rise to the level of the first piece, with the possible exception of It Was All TakennAway. All in all, a solid album. Favorite track: Dead Ends.

FlashMuc Varied album between doomy melo death and Katatonian Post Metal. Safe bet for fans of those styles. Favorite track: Dead Ends.

YomaBarr Poignant, thrilling, personal and made with love, what else to ask for?

update
poignant, hah... moving to the bone. Congratulations, Soliloquium.

Sonny92 Death doom in the vein of Katatonia and October Tide. I prefer DDM in the old-school style of Autopsy and Coffins, but accepting that this isn't that kind of metal it does turn out to be pretty decent. It's death doom is tempered by more reflective, post-metal and progressive sections with clean vocals, I'm guessing very much influenced by Steven Wilson and Mikael Akerfeldt. It's very melodic and, in truth, a million miles from down and dirty death doom, but it's pretty good if that's your bag.

H.L. SOLILOQUIUM perform dynamic and varied melodic death doom metal and remind me here and there at October Tide, Swallow the Sun, Katatonia or even early Windir in some songs because of the wild melodic guitars. On this album I have some clear favourites, mainly the songs which are a bit more lively and contain more growls, as I prefer them to the clean vocals (except the monumental "The Discarded"). My other favourites are the mighty "Existential Misshape" and the catchy "It was all taken away". Favorite track: The Discarded.

"Things We Leave Behind" is an account of personal hardships, alienation and dark Stockholm nights. It picks up where 2018's "Contemplations" left off. Expect Swedish-style progressive death/doom metal similar to bands like Katatonia, October Tide and Daylight Dies. The album has some of the most extreme moments in the band's history, as well as some of the most lush and beautiful. The point is to tell a story that's both introspective and relatable at the same time. It's both an account of personal issues and a commentary on the growing mental health epidemic.

Between Land and Sky
by Marrasmieli

supported by 197 fans who also own “Things We Leave Behind”

These musicians know how to drive music straight to the heart. Black metal is more than a cold premise for refined guitar work and multiple changes inside each song. Lyrics too are incredibly inspired and matching with music. Marrasmieli is a newborn flower, still covered by dew's brightness. Aallot is in particular a lesson of emotional crescendo, especially in second half of the song but in general, all the tracklist remains on the peak of the best inspiration. Best of luck to them! fleba_il_fenicio

I thought Aphotic Veil was and still is one of the greatest releases I've ever heard, I love it. So understandably I was a little apprehensive about this release. It's awesome to be able to say that this full length is every bit as good. This is truly masterful metal with epic melodic doom death and black metal overtones. But there is so much more to it than that, it's just so well done, craftsmanship in it's truest form. Fraz
