A seminal part of the Dutch and Flemish doom metal scene for over a decade, Hooded Priest now embarks upon their next sonic adventure. Never afraid to stray off the beaten path, the band has relinquished most of their earlier thrash and heavy metal influences, resulting in a slower, more pure-bred and primitive version of doom metal. With its overwhelming wall of sound, clever compositions and diverse musical influences, combined with the mischievous, dahlesque, death and deliverance lyrics of front man Luther Veldmark, their new album sounds both familiar and refreshing at the same time.
