It’s a known tradition to have Italian bands play out-of-the-box doom metal. The latest very noteworthy export from the boot-shaped country comes in the form of Ponte Del Diavolo and their debut album, Fire Blades From The Tomb. This is a blackened doom revelation, full of occult rock, post-punk, and darkwave sensitivities. Atmospheric nightly soundscapes, fierce aggressive leanings, medieval mysteries, and ritualistic invocations of evil find their place in this engrossing manifestation of menacing doom, while the haunting melodies, the dual bass attack, the evocative clarinet, and the Siouxsie Sioux-esque vocals make for a bold sound that is both familiar and uncommon in its nature. nikarg's picks | More picks ›› |

This is a pretty good release I must say, dark, grim, and eerily atmospheric traditional doom with a slight blackened touch, and an excellent tone aswel.

I love this one. Evil and menacing doom, with great performances, and a fantastic cover of Nick Cave's "The Weeping Song".
