This time of the year is the best for some expansive, atmospheric doom metal. Transcending Obscurity Records give you the latest release of ET MORIEMUR which has members of legendary Czech doom bands such as DISSOLVING OF PRODIGY, SELF-HATRED and SILENT STREAM OF GODLESS ELEGY. You can check out their teaser on the label’s official Youtube Channel, here:

ET MORIEMUR are doing things in an exceptional way for their upcoming full length titled ‘Epigrammata’. Delving into the rich European history, imbibing Gregorian chanting and using Latin and ancient Greek to convey their message, the Czech supergroup of sorts with members of bands such as DISSOLVING OF PRODIGY, SELF-HATRED and SILENT STREAM OF GODLESS ELEGY, have assembled a host of musicians playing cello, violin, trombone among others and have even employed services of a choir to take their expression to another level. They combine influences of death, doom and even a bit of black metal and use their operatic flair to imbue it with a mesmerizing quality. It transcends the perceptions of the death/doom style at present and gloriously brings back forgotten elements to elevate it.
