Эту новую голландско / шведскую дум-метал группу
создали Ed Warby (Aggressor, Demiurg, Elegy,
Gorefest, Hail Of Bullets, Ayreon, Impact,
Tempter, Valkyrie, Star One) и Rogga Johansson
(Bone Gnawer, Terminal Grip, Paganizer, Carve,
Demiurg, Banished From Inferno, Edge Of Sanity,
Deranged, Foreboding, Ribspreader, Eaten, Those
Who Bring the Torture, Putrevore, Revolting,
Sinners Burn). Хотя оба эти музыканта известны по
своим работам в иных стилях, включая дэт-метал,
здесь они вополотить в жизнь свою давнюю мечту -
создать классический, образцово-показательный
думовый альбом. 'Burden Of Grief' (2009) - шесть
треков с атмосферой невыразимой, смертельной тоски
и удушающим монолитным звуком. Среди явных влияний
можно упомянуть Candlemass, Paradise Lost, Krux.
