It`s time for a burial of everything optimistic. It`s time for slow, nostalgic and sorrowful funeral doom metal from Russian one man band. Whatever your mood is right now, the winds of changes will come, once you decide to face this album and play it. I can write a few words before you try but it`s not gonna take long. Except, spare yourself a little time because those 6 songs on the album are actually quite long, which is not surprise.
The music is sort of ceremonial, mournful and sad but in meaning that Nikolay knows how to turn emotions of great unhappiness of human nature into motion of very heavy music. His riffs are very slow and it sometimes takes eternity to switch to another one but it`s just so symptomatic to this specific genre like funeral doom. I have heard few dreadful doom metal albums before but Funeral Tears is none of those. He based music on heavy sound, also offers melancholic guitars along which is brightly better for diversity and transition of author feelings into better music ideas. Long minutes on the album are full of wonder and despair, like you were locked in a tomb alive. Holy shit, it`s how I react on music sometimes but I think that Beyond Horizon is a giver of sadness, desolation and loneliness but consist proper music choices which are those songs - good ones.
Vocals with few exceptions are mainly growls – horrendous and have grave-deep tone and it`s just what you could expect from doom metal.
If your willingness is to dedicate a little time for Funeral Tears to listen to this album, I would encourage you to do so, because I do not know if other one man band could make better album than this one.
Line up:
Seredov Nikolay – all instruments
Tracklist:
Close My Eyes
Breathe
Dehiscing Emptiness
I Suffocate
Beyond The Horizon
Eternal Tranquility
