Synopsis
Album Description This eccentric new release combines death and doom with moods of darkness and despair. 'The Knowing' (Pavement) is intelligently constructed with the use of multiple voices, both male and female, that wind through lengthy instrumental passages that are suddenly interrupted by acoustic guitar, piano and sound effects.

CD ReviewsAmerican Death Doom at its best Nickolaus Pacione | Joliet, Illinois, United States | 03/09/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Novembers Doom is one of the few American bands who could do this sound and do it in a way that makes it entirely their own. I got this album on Dark Symphonies.com, and the way their CDs are set up are by dark numbers. Novembers Doom carries the number of 10. They incorperate some things that are not often mixed in with doom or death metal, in that it makes them extremely unique.
I would play this album when I would write, and one of the tracks that I will say is my favorite is Shadows of Light but there are a lot of good tracks on this one -- if any album I could say is the equal to Pink Floyd's The Wall, this is the album that would be the doom-death equal. I am glad to be from the same county originally as these guys, and one of DuPage County's best kept secrets. Paul is an amazing vocalist when it comes to doing this style of metal, and an impressive range in there throwing in a few nods to Alice in Chains, local heavy metal legends Trouble, and Black Sabbath. What Novembers Doom proved is they could do death metal that isn't only good but highly though provoking at the same time. I could actually see The Knowing as a novel if Paul decides to turn a novel out of it." |
