Age Of Damnation

United By Chaos
It`s a review about Serbian band that prepared a very solid foundations for their music. Through clarity of album production which also has very good mixes and mastering, TFOS creates sadness and melancholy of doom metal as its finest on the underground scene. With incredible heaviness of music like it is on My Dying Bride albums and gothic influences as it can be heard on early Moonspell CD`s, for me, Age Of Damnation will find its spot in my music collection. The album is a bit nostalgic because it also has mix of death metal bands like Orphanage, Phlebotomized from 90`s that sounded like raw death metal acts but slower music and deep, growl vocals was their inclinations towards doom metal. TFOS is better than many of those bands because their sound is more massive, polished and overall musicianship is much better.
Age of Damnation consists almost 60 minutes of instrumental soundscapes which are carrier for emotions but distant it from happiness. You can hear every possible extreme vocals that fits to doom and death metal, including clean singing. Violin parts are amazing along with brave and active bass tracks (songs 4 and 8) which are something that moves the band into magic areas of music. There`s lot of very good guitar ideas, few fine solos and spaces for expressing music on mid paced terms. Mostly the album is just really heavy and raising from ruins of past decades of doom metal which was quite unsettled time for the genre at that point. Yet, the album lacks maturity of the greatest doom metal albums that I have heard but surely those Serbians have taken right course in order to develop their music style .
Nonetheless, I urge you to check this album out without hesitation because it`s loaded with good, monumental metal songs.
