Dolorian - Dolorian (2001)

Previously:
Dolorian - When All the Laughter Has Gone (1999)

Following their superb debut LP, Dolorian moved into more abstract musical territory. Dissonant clean guitars play throughout virtually the entire record while distorted guitars and keyboards drift in and out. The vocals are generally whispers, soaked in reverb and buried in the mix. Fans of Esoteric should be feeling this.

Track listing:
1. Grey Rain
2. Blue Unknown
3. Hidden / Rising
4. Cold / Colourless
5. Nails
6. Numb Lava
7. Ambiquous Ambivalence
8. Seclusion

Thousands of bayonets inside my chest

Dolorian - When All the Laughter Has Gone (1999)

Unsettling Finnish blackened doom metal. The slow, heavy bits, punctuated by disturbing, high-pitched screams and ethereal keyboards, are offset by numerous extended, dark, dissonant clean sections. The stuff of nightmares.

Track listing:
1. Desolated Colours
2. My Weary Eyes
3. A Part of Darkness
4. When All the Laughter Has Gone
5. Collapsed
6. Fields
7. With Scorn

There's no need for consolation
There's no need for you, children of Jesus
There's no need for you
