Cemetary - An Evil Shade Of Grey (1992)

In the 2nd album 'Godless Beauty', perhaps their best release, their sound is melodic with beautiful passages, and melancholic moments. The 3rd album is Melodic Doom with Gothic influences, this album marked the definitive change in their sound. These 3 first albums of the band are highly recommended!!!

Genre : Melodic Doom Death

Country : Sweden

Lake of Tears is one of the great bands from the Swedish Doom scene. The band has changed their sound over the years. The first albums 'Greater Art' and 'Headstones' are Melodic Doom with semi-guttural vocals and dense melodies (early Tiamat - Paradise Lost mid era), 'A Crimson Cosmos' and 'Forever Autumn' are in the vein of Paradise Lost ('Draconian Times'/'One Second')

Highly recommended!!!
