Lycus (2013)

7.0/ 10

“With subtle influences from black and death metal, Lycus has pulled together a heavy and incredibly melodic doom metal album that will probably get you whipping out your air guitar at least a few times during its 40-minute run-time.”

On their debut album Tempest, the Oakland death doom quartet Lycus sand down the rough edges of their 2011 demo and embrace a unique take on European funeral doom. The quartet refrain from histrionic, death-worshipping self-hatred and instead embrace a more cosmic, organic take on sorrow.
