Morgion Crafted crushing composistions that burned themselves into the

collective psyche of fans of sullen and somber metal the world over. This two

-disc collection compiles all of Morgions's Relapse recordings, including 7

unreleased studio,demo,and rehearsal tracks,into the definitive Morgion

collection. Bask in the overlasting glow of Morgion's epic, imperial metal.



This monolithic double disc set of 142 minutes of pure Doom covers the early

years of Morgion's tenure at Relapse Records, a label more commonly known

for its grind and Death Metal variants than for Doom Metal. Featured are the

bands' albums "Among Majestic Ruin" of 1997 and 1999's "Solinari", 1999's

"Oceans Without Shores" EP and a few random demo tracks thrown in for

good measure, making it a great place to start for any Doomfreak like myself

who hadn't previously known the band.



For some reason it is their second album which kicks off disc one with the

melodramatic "The Serpentines Scroll / Descent to Arawn" which sets the

scene for what is to come. In it's 10 minutes is the most somber of intros as

well classic mournful Doom with a grating guitar sound ala Entombed on "Left

Hand Path" and Amorphis-like keyboard background melody, massively

reminding me of their 10/10 1994 classic "Tales From The Thousand Lakes".

Imagine the Amorphis influence carried throughout the rest of the album

along with the dark spiritual bleakness of Finnish funeral Doom titans

Thergothon and Skepticism and Britain's My Dying Bride. "Canticle" and

"Nightfall Inferno" among others reek of these influences, notably the

passages of spoken vocals where vocalist Jeremy Peto sounds genuinely

upset and distraught. While not the blackest of Doom in its atmosphere, it is a

lot more despairing than the more upbeat (at least recently) sounds of

Candlemass or the drugged vibe of Electric Wizard. Disc 1's bonus tracks

("Oceans Without Shores" EP) offer a similar tone and feel, not surprising

given that the two releases initially came out in the same year.



Disc 2, Morgion's debut album "Among Majestic Ruin", though released in

1997 was actually recorded in 1994 and it shows as the influence of

Thergothon is much greater back when they ruled the roost of

extreme/funeral Doom. The vocals are growled in what is basically Death

Metal-style grunts, perhaps closest to Chris Reifert (Autopsy), but the

atmosphere and guitar tone pull it to more extreme territories. The speed

however does pick at times closer to a Death/Doom style and "Relic of a

Darkened Past" even pulls itself to slow-for-Death-Metal speeds previously

inhabited by Death on "Leprosy" or about any Obituary recording. "In Ashen

Tears (Thus I Cry)" feels like the strange paranoia of Cathedral's "Forest of

Equilibrium" classic and "Travesty" could actually be an Amorphis cover such is

the weight of their influence, especially in the keys/piano department. That is

not a slight against Morgion however as few bands have tried the

"...Thousand Lakes" sound and when done well, as in here, it's majestic and

attention-grabbing. Bonus tracks on this disc are some demos and a rehearsal

track, with one being disc 1's opener "The Serpentines Scroll / Descent to

Arawn", the main difference between the inclusion of some choral vocals as

opposed to the singular style of earlier.



Depending on personal Doom tastes choosing a favourite of the two albums

here is difficult: I personally like the darker growled vibe on "Among Majestic

Ruin" but "Solinari" emits a more doomed feel, less contrived than that

generated by the keys on "Among Majestic Ruin". This release is absolutely

not intended for listening to the whole way through like double-disc Reverend

Bizarre and Esoteric albums, as it is more a documented history of Morgion

and as such used to sample two different sounds they experimented with in

the early(-ish) years of their career. Presumably the two albums featured are

hard to come across now and as such a release like this will fill a hole in the

collections of anyone who's been after some Morgion for many years.
