The Wounded Kings- The Shadow over Atlantis

 The Wounded Kings - The Shadow Over Atlantis
DOWNLOAD- The Shadow over Atlantis

Droning forth a doomy experience. English countryside and doom metal has always gone hand in hand and The Wounded Kings is just another example of this. The Shadow over Atlantis is their second album and i have armed myself with one of the limited 500 vinyl copies of it.

This is everything doom metal should be. Downtuned guitars slowly bursting out of the depths of a distorted ocean, slow beautiful howling solos emerge from a whirling maelstrom and behind this scenery of sound the singer is pulling off some mad vibrato-vocal technique.

The music in itself would have been enough to make The Wounded Kings a really decent band, but the singer turn them into something special. Here's an example- Baptism of Atlantis check it out!



The Wounded Kings signed on prominent swedish label I Hate for the release of The Shadow over Atlantis. A lable specialising in doom and trash metal that also support other good acts such as Black Oath, The Gates of Slumber and Jex Thoth. If you like these bands then you should check out The Wounded Kings as well.

The Shadow over Atlantis goes on for about 40 minutes and my favourite tracks include Sons of Belial, Baptism of Atlantis and the instrumental track Deathless Echo.

Tracklist:
1 The Swirling Mist
2 Baptism of Atlantis
3 Into the Oceans Abyss
4 The Sons of Belial
5 Deathless Echo
6 Invocation of the Ancients
