Additional Information:
SPIRIT
DESCENT
was formed in mid 2008 by former COLD EMBRACE
vocalist and bass player Andreas Libera, and
joined shortly thereafter by Jan Eichelbaum, the
former front man of DECEPTIVE SILENCE.
During
the following months, the songs for the debut
album were written, and three of them were
released as an online-demo in early 2009. With
their main influences being Epic Doom Metal
bands like Solitude Aeturnus, Candlemass,
Warning and Solstice, that is exactly what the
band delivered, and
the songs were instantly acclaimed very highly
by many Doom Metal fans. Solstice main man and
Miskatonic owner Rich Walker even hailed „Land
Of Tears“ as one of the best doom metal songs
he had heard in years!
In
spring 2009 the line-up was completed by Guido
Preussner on drums, and with the help of
session-guitarist Joachim Folta the band
recorded their debut in Michael Hahn's
well-known Rosenquarz Studio (Warning, The Lamp
Of Thoth, Isen Torr)
As
they
left the studio they were holding „Doominion“
in their hands, an album that is pure Doom Metal
of the highest order. They didn't try to
reinvent the style, they simply incorporated
what Doom Metal is all about - it’s
traditional, heavy, epic, true and so good!
Joachim
has since been replaced by none other than THE
LAMP OF THOTH's Randy Reaper and SPIRIT DESCENT
signed a deal with Eyes Like Snow who are going
to release "Doominion" in September
2010.
