Last month, our writer Jonathan Keane wrote an awesome review for an off-the-chain death/doom band named On Pain of Death…Read an excerpt of his review below, and after that check out our full stream of Year Naught Doom out now on Handshake Inc…
One look at the artwork that adorns the cover of Year Naught Doom immediately conveys a feeling or hopelessness and impending doom. The eerie cover is taken from an Edgar Allan Poe collection volume and couldn’t be more fitting for the wretched death doom found within Ireland’s On Pain of Death’s first full-length. Much like the pace of their crawling, sickly doom, Year Naught Doom has been a long time in gestation. The Mayo doom ensemble first made their vibrations with their demo in 2008, garnering some well-deserved attention, but it was merely the sound of a band that had much more to express and unfortunately it’s taken much longer than anticipated, a wait that has seen an EP discarded but their live presence honed into a tightly executed exercise in melancholy and despair.
