Thergothon - Stream From the Heavens[views:1216][posts:8]______________________________ [Jun 18,2009 1:24pm - Yeti ""] finally, after searching for this album for the last 10 years i was able to find one. i randomly came across it at Newbury Comics in Shrewsbury yesterday, i almost fell over when i saw it. this album is a monster, i have always heard about it but have never found one in either the store or on Ebay, at least one that is reasonably priced on Ebay. the sorrow is so thick on this album it turns your blood to sludge. essential for any funeral doom fans, this is where Evoken learned to do what they do. the best song is "Elemental". |

| _________________________________________ [Jun 18,2009 2:09pm - Conservationist ""] Evoken sounds like a cross between Disembowelment, Skepticism and Eyes of Ligeia, in my view. Both Thergothon and Skepticism are of the gods. |

Evoken covering "Yet the Watchers Guard" is going to be colossal. Just went back and listened to Fhtagn-nagh Yog-Sothoth and the demo version of Elemental destroys the SftH's version. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 24,2009 10:18am - GRAVESIDESERVICE ""] I bought this a few years back and listened to it a bunch of times. I remember being very happy with it and the keys on it are creepy, reminiscent of the keys often heard on the French legions stuff. |
