TROUBLE

Release Year: 2023
Artist Origin: USA
Style: epic monumental doom heavy metal

on the third nominal studio longplay [1987] American forefathers of traditional doom have expanded their haunting sound, seeking a more contrasting expression and incorporating more melodic elements, diverse, faster tempos, and even more straightforward approach, emphasizing the role of choruses, so the classic heavy metal connection becomes more than obvious, while intricate guitar arrangements go hand in hand with sharper and more refined production, where Eric Wagner's emotionally compelling voice sounds remarkably dynamic and polished, shifting between vulnerable sensitivity and elevated intensity, reflecting the broader scope of the sound pallette, yearning for liberation and redemption on emotional level via light-seeking topics in the lyrics; recent German white-splattered "vanilla" clear vinyl edition with a remastered sound and pro-printed lyric insert is limited to 300 machine-numbered units, copy #276
