Just thought I'd share some information on the album, that fans might find cool.
Here is a snippet from an online interview
Full interview can be seen here: http://www.cackblabbath.co.uk/2011/02/07/woods-of-ypres-interview-with-david-ypres/
Woods 4 is "The Green Album", why green ?
"Many reasons. Here's four: Firstly, W4 was the first album to feature the Philadelphia brothers Evan Madden on drums and Shane Madden on bass, otherwise known from the metal act THE GREEN EVENING REQUIEM. Second, we were in a low and slow TYPE O NEGATIVE doom-like mood when creating this album, TYPE O, of whom the colour green was a constant trademark and who have obviously been a big influence on us. Third, we were green with efficiency, writing and recording a straightforward, stripped down album in a very short time. Lastly, her last name was Green, I was completely obsessed and this was the only album I knew how to make at the time. Any other title would not have been as true. Green is the heaviest word I know."
Also... check out the second time he sings the chorus in I Was Buried In Mount Pleasant Cemetery.
First time:
"I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and unceremoniously"
Whereas the second time he put a quirky detail I would not have noticed hadn't it been for the booklet.
"When I was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, alone and un-Sarah-moniously"
Now.... We have a first name and a last name: Sarah Green
If you look into the lineup on Woods II, you'll see that she actually did session vocals.

Someone give Marcel a nudge, he's in broken record mode again ;]

Ooo it''s apparently hard for most people to face the thruth so come up with the ever recurring "boken recrd" phrases sight that what you get when you dare to be critical on a site.

Well you seem to like recycled bands so I'm surprised you don't like this 
I haven't heard this by the way. I might check it out at some point.

this one recycles the BAD riffs and melodies whereas the bands I like lik recycle the good riffs and mellodiues and WoY isn;t really recycling it thgey re totally ripping it it off

Ah typical justifications based on taste Marcel. Not what I call being critical, more like the pot calling the kettle black. Clones and rip offs are the same regardless of genre or taste ;]

you really don't get io do you?
Ripping off discarded stuff the originals didn't want to use (as is the case here) is much worse than ripping off/copying the good stuff bands releasesd.
Sleep tight you who thinks that bringing a woman in to a derivative sludge band s voalicat and also as playing some instruments is being totally original

Nope, you can't rip-off what was never released, you can only emulate, which includes an element of creativity. You're just blind as usual thinking clones of band you like automatically make them good and popular stuff like this is instantly rubbish because you choose not to like it and throw silly personal justifications at it.
Good night, sleep tight thinking about stuff like Pilgrim who so desperately want to be a 20 year old doom band they're happy to rip-off the music and the image of any band that came before them.
Calling bands like SubRosa derivative is hilarious and hypocritical considering your taste in doom and death metal. By your own description you should love them seeing as you only like derivative music 
Endlessly prattling on about bands you don't like who have a similar sound to other bands when your entire taste is based on old, derivative clones and wannabes is pure irony!

Not out yet. No idea when it will be released. As far as I know they haven't even recorded anything for it yet.

In that case, I'll personally stalk and badmouth your every review and downvote every single album you like. Don't fuck with Pat Walker, man.

Aww Its just an attack on Marcel, I don't hate the band, but he likes it so I want to crush him by saying its unoriginal and crappy

I really hate Dave's cleans on this album as well as the lyrics, especially in the final track. My least favorite of the WoY catalogue

|
|
|

And my most favorite (which is not really surprising regarding Marcel's opinion )
