DESOLATE WINTER - REHEARSAL TAPE (1995)

by DESOLATE WINTER

supported by

Sagoth Raw and lo-fi melodic black metal from Ireland.
Massive improvement compared to the demo. This one is much faster and ferocious with some mid paced parts and hunting melodies.
Buy it! Favorite track: Dark Matrimonial Gown.

---------------------------------------------------------

DESOLATE WINTER are an Irish Black Metal band born in 1994. The Ethos of the band has always been to create emotional & darkly beautiful, atmospheric music that pierces the psyche and touches the soul. Symphonic dark operas weave themes of yearning, mourning, anger & passion. The band began as a five piece from Dublin which were heavily influenced by the Norwegian Black metal scene of the 1990's.

There is only a rehearsal demo from around 1995(as far as I know) that features the original band. But in more recent years, Adam Lynch has adopted the original band name and created a number of solo compositions. This newer incarnation of DESOLATE WINTER is counterpoint to it's early black metal influences with a more contemporary sound closer to Gothic/Doom Metal. There were a number of demos posted online back in 2008 and more, as yet unfinished, demos are also available on his Youtube channel (www.youtube.com/LynchAdam).

Studňa (Full-length, 2015)
by Evil

supported by 10 fans who also own “DESOLATE WINTER - REHEARSAL TAPE (1995)”

Killer (mostly) fast melodic and evil (had to) black metal from Slovakia. Song writing wise, this album hardly reinvents anything, but it does succeed at being authentic and highly enjoyable throughout. Buy it! Sagoth

Urheimat - Volanie Havranov (Full-length, 2009)
by Karpathia

supported by 10 fans who also own “DESOLATE WINTER - REHEARSAL TAPE (1995)”

Synphonic/melodic black metal the early days style. With murky production, tons of keyboards, shrieks and tremolo picking Karpathia delivers a solld BM album. It's not ground breaking nor innovative in anyway, but it's a great listen non the less. Check this one out! Sagoth
