A Halifax band that started heavy and got moody, with songs like 'Rapture' and 'Say Just Words'.
For their early doom, try 'Eternal'. If you want the later, moodier side, 'Say Just Words' holds up.
They took the slow, heavy sound of Black Sabbath and mixed it with the hazy textures of My Bloody Valentine, which gave doom metal a melodic, atmospheric edge. That blend defined early albums like 'Lost Paradise' and 'Gothic'. Later, they shifted toward goth rock and electronic touches, a move you can hear in tracks like 'Rapture' from their catalog.
They formed in Halifax in the late 1980s and put out their debut 'Lost Paradise' in 1990. By the late '90s, albums like 'One Second' and 'Host' showed a turn toward goth and electronic sounds, a direction they've kept exploring through recent records like 'Obsidian'.
