Great track, I really like the vibe this gives off. The guitar and bass tone is very nice too.

This must be the first time I've seen a doom track on here: makes me want to start listening to Esoteric, Colosseum and Dolorian again :mrgreen:
Tone-wise it reminds me of both My Dying Bride and Draconian, which is a good thing: I'm not as convinced by the clean arpeggio that starts at about 2:30, though, as it feels a bit too dry and shallow (maybe more reverb would have helped?). That said, really cool track!

I like the song too. I don't have as many metal references, but it does remind me of a few things from the 90s.
I liked the touch with the talkbox effect!
The snare sounds rather odd though, as if it was recorded from speakers or in a different room entirely. So did the solo in the intro. The basic tone sounds just right, but there's something out of place...

Tnx for the comment.
Now you mentioned the snare and guitarpart in the intro and listening the song again i now hear what you are talking about.
Wel always room for improvement in mixing :mrgreen:
Learning everyday :D
The OH, room and snare are the only acoustic recorded parts of the drumkit, the snare is enhanced with a snare-sample, Toms and kick are pure samples triggered by midi from the drummers Roland TD3.
Maybe a little of roomverb could fix this and make the kit more unison, and maybe also the guitarpart.

First of all I need to say this is a very cool name for a doom/death metal track.

Beside that, I really loved the riff and the guitar tone. For a doom metal song it has a great flow, in the sense that it kept me interested all the way through.

Nice to hear some metal music around here. Good work.
