Finland’s Omnium Gatherum, a gloomy, dark doom/death band of whom Axl and I are big fans, have posted two new full tracks from their new album The Redshift, out September 22 in Europe and October 14 in the U.S. (Candlelight). I’m tired and unable to come up with anything funny/interesting, but trust us, it’s good and you’ll like it if you like stuff like Daylight Dies and Agalloch.

These guys have long been a favorite act of mine, yet I hardly listen to them. Their stuff falls in such a funny crevice in terms of categorization that I’m often not in the mood for exactly their stew of sound. Every time I make myself put them on, though, they impress me.
I think I’ll pick up The Redshift.
