GOATS OF DOOM
Alla kirkkaimman tähden

Third album of Finnish black metal band Goats of Doom. They have been taking huge step forward from the last album with their traditional Nordic black metal. Catchy melodies, some clean vocals and cold atmosphere.
 

 GOATS OF DOOM showed a new face on Rukous, where the mysterious atmosphere of old is shot through with more surging aggression and bewitching melody: in essence, a melodic blizzard, if you will. It's characteristically Finnish in its melancholy - melody can never be too saccharine, of course - but burns icy hot with a passion that makes its seven-song/42-minute runtime a nightsky treasure to behold. The theme of Rukous is suitably spirituality, and hereby do GOATS OF DOOM offer myriad ways to worship the dark.
