Soulburn
Soulburn is a Dutch death metal/black-doom band. History Originally Soulburn emerged after a first demise of Dutch death metal band Asphyx in the mid-90s, when founding members Eric Daniels (guitars) and Bob Bagchus (drums) looked for a separate outlet to unleash their mutual obsession with Bathory and Venom. After a demo and the cult ''Feeding On Angels'' debut album via Century Media Records in 1998, which featured Wannes Gubbels (Pentacle) on vocals and bass, Soulburn were put to rest when Asphyx returned with ''On the Wings of Inferno'' in 2000 with the same line-up. 16 years after their debut album, Soulburn resurfaced with their new line-up featuring the core of Eric Daniels (guitars) and Bob Bagchus (drums), teaming with Twan van Geel (Legion Of The Damned) as vocalist/bassist and Remco Kreft (Nailgun Massacre) as second guitarist to create their second album, ''The Suffocating Darkness''. It was recorded with Harry Wijering (Harrow Productions) and mixing and mastering ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Black-doom
Doom metal is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal music that typically uses slower tempos, low-tuned guitars and a much "thicker" or "heavier" sound than other heavy metal genres.K. Kahn-Harris, ''Extreme Metal: Music and Culture on the Edge'' (Berg Publishers, 2007), , p. 31. Both the music and the lyrics are intended to evoke a sense of despair, dread, and impending doom. The genre is strongly influenced by the early work of Black Sabbath, who formed a prototype for doom metal. During the first half of the 1980s, a number of bands such as Witchfinder General and Pagan Altar from England, American bands Pentagram, Saint Vitus, the Obsessed, Trouble, and Cirith Ungol, and Swedish band Candlemass defined doom metal as a distinct genre. Characteristics Instrumentation The electric guitar, bass guitar, and drum kit are the most common instruments used to play doom metal (although keyboards are sometimes used), but its structures are rooted in the same scales as in blues. ...
