Spirit Descent

Formed in 2008 by former Cold Embrace frontman Andreas Libera Spirit Descent quickly emerged to become one of the premier Doom Metal bands in the north of Germany.

Considering the debut album „Doominion“ to be a good first statement, the following album „VII Chapters In A Minor“ continued on the chosen „Path Of Doom“, but also introduced a more progressive approach and the tendency to write even longer epic songs than on „Doominion“. „Not your standard doom act“ is a typical reaction whenever it comes to label Spirit Descent with a term.

During 2012 and 2013 a lot of gigs were played, highlighted by a support gig for mighty Saint Vitus and an appearance at the very last „Doom Shall Rise“.

Going through a lot of lineup changes Spirit Descent still managed to get some new songs written....and upcoming 2014 will see the new lineup re-entering the stages and the release of album No.3.

Somnus Aeternus

Somnus Aeternus is a Doom/Death Metal band from Brno, Czech Republic formed in 2007. After a few years of line-up changes and forming the material, the band reworked their old demo material with the new line-up in 2011 and soon after started recording their debut album.

The first album called “On the Shores of Oblivion” was finally recorded and released in 2012 by Russian doom-metal label Solitude Productions.

The lyrics and the whole band concept revolves around the idea of similarity (and to a certain degree interchangeability) of sleep and death, which goes hand in hand with realizing one’s mortality and all the implications arising from such an understanding of life. The music of Somnus Aeternus should not go unnoticed to fans of Swallow the Sun, Agalloch, Opeth, Katatonia, Saturnus, Arcturus or Insomnium.
