The Spooky Gloom

The Spooky Gloom cover art

An obscure but crucial early artifact of the European death-doom underground, this lone full-length release from the Dutch outfit is a masterclass in suffocating musical atmosphere. The album drags primitive death metal riffing through agonizingly slow, sludgy tempos, pre-dating the explosion of the gothic doom scene in the early 1990s. Its bleak, infernal tone makes it a highly prized recording among extreme metal purists.
