Description
In 2017, Godthrymm was founded by vocalist/guitarist Hamish Glencross, an esteemed UK metal figure from bands like ex-My Dying Bride, Vallenfyre, and Solstice. He returns to his doom metal origins, crafting music reminiscent of his work on Solstice's 'New Dark Age' and with My Dying Bride from 2000 - 2014. Joining him is ex-My Dying Bride/Anathema drummer Shaun Taylor - Steels. After refining the lineup post - 'A Grand Reclamation' EP, they became the core. Together, they recorded the epic debut album 'Reflections'. Later, bassist Bob Crolla joined, forming a powerful doom trio. This debut unleashes heavy, mournful, yet pounding traditional doom, harking back to the '90s UK doom and Peaceville Records era. It's a huge leap from the debut EP, with Glencross taking the band into darker, melancholic realms. Glencross's soaring vocals and powerful riffs, combined with Steels's thunderous percussion, create a glorious rhythm. 'Reflections' pays homage to the golden days of UK doom and emerges as a new force.
To enjoy this album, simply play it on your preferred music - playing device, like a CD player or a music app. Sit back and let the heavy, mournful sounds wash over you. There aren't really any strict rules for listening, but it's best enjoyed in a quiet environment where you can fully appreciate the details. When it comes to the physical CD, if you have one, keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent scratches. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. If you're streaming the album, make sure your internet connection is stable for the best listening experience. Just relax and let Godthrymm's unique brand of doom metal take you on a journey.
