Blood from Stone CD

Artist: THE MOANING
Label: Century Media

Release Year: 2012
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: intense harmonious blackened death metal

Luleå five-piece was one of those mid-nineties Swedish bands who played catchy and harmonious blackened death metal with a fiery atmosphere which was as important as technical delivery - first thought is Dissection, but there actually were more high rated bands like Dawn, Sacramentum and The Moaning; their only longplay [1997], featuring bass player Niklas Svensson, also from Gates of Ishtar and Throne of Ahaz, is more straightforward than all those other bands, maintaining intense dynamics and infernal feeling of music nonetheless; recent limited re-issue comes on black polycarbonate disk with a death certificate, additional four songs from 1994's demo, authentic cover artwork by Kristian "Necrolord" Wåhlin, new liner notes and revised layout
