October Tide
Grey Dawn
Avantagarde, 1999


Side-project of Jonas Renske and Frederick Norrman of Katatonia. Elegant and dismal doom metal in the style of early Katatonia, further exploring the depths of despair through chromatic melodies, sorrowful riffs, and simplistic yet efficient rhythms. Vocals are growled in the death metal style, though with an anguished tone to suit this dispirited material. Bleak and beautiful, this album is cold isolation.
