The complete works by Australian sibling of Skepticism on two disks in a period of 1994-2001. Have you ever heard Skepticism? I supposed their music is sepulchralest until i've heard MC. It's difficult to find more mournful guitars. In addition there are many acoustic episodes. Vocals are growl and clean, and sometimes the guitar sound like a bagpipe. Depressive and sombre, but very melodic and beautiful music. It mesmerizes and paralyses. You may become rotten with clear conscience. The sounds of "Mournful Hymns" raise all dregs which are accumulated at the bottom of a soul. The last hymn is dedicated to Mad Max, the soloist of Worship which ended his days like true doomster. The booklet is a very useful appendix - in addition to joyless texts and a list of demos there are sundry sculptures, images of stained-glass windows and graves which are very correlated with an album's atmosphere, plus illegible shapes of the band members. On the last page of booklet the band members do thank neither parents nor God, but Depression, Pain, Death, Suicide, Disdain, Misery, Sadness, Gloom, Dejection, Melancholia, Desolation, Despondency, Discouragement, Downheartedness, Grief, Suffering, Distress, Anguish, Torture, Agony, Torment, Woe, Sorrow, Wretchedness, Unhappiness, Affiction, Displeasure, Misfortune, Lamentation, Mourning, Solitude, Solemnity and Doom. More dead than alive... Review by DedLen |
