The Book of Kings finds Mournful Congregation in fine form on their fourth full length release. With a history stretching back to 1994 it's not surprising that this Adelaide, South Australia trio have mastered the art of funeral doom. The four lengthy tracks ebb and flow with emotion and instrumentation and create a gloomy atmosphere that is solidified by other worldly vocals and acoustic passages that add to the tension of the songs. The playing and production are top tier and this release should be in any year end top ten list for fans of the genre.
Tracklist :
1 The Catechism of Depression
2 The Waterless Streams
3 The Bitter Veils of Solemnity
4 The Book of Kings
