Sombre Romantic is the debut album from pioneering gothic doom band, Virgin Black. Originally released independently in 2000, then via The End Records and Massacre Records in 2001, it marks itself as uniquely dark and esoteric to this day.

Панихида
by Krzysztof Drabikowski

supported by 10 fans who also own “Sombre Romantic”

La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années... Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne. Jordan Vauvert

Wake of a Nation (EP)
by Zeal and Ardor

supported by 9 fans who also own “Sombre Romantic”

If there ever was a timely album to sum up the United States in 2020, this is it. Elements of black metal, hymnals, call-and-response, sampled news audio, and Manuel's amazing voice come together to form a beautifully tortured sound. The term 'avant-garde' is rightfully earned with every moment of this EP. mistermunn
