Eyes Of Fire
Mindrot
turned some heads in their relatively short career in
the mid-nineties with their unique take on bleak, doom/industrial
metal.
Several years after that band's breakup,
two members emerged
in Eyes Of Fire, a band retaining a bit of the Mindrot past but
in general forging a new path.
Ashes To Embers, their 2004 debut album
following an intro EP a year earlier, is a finely developed somber
foray into semi-doom metal, with some songs wandering into
Anathema
territory and others retaining a crunchier, harshier style
(see "Shelter" for an example).
The band balance clean and harsh vocal styles effectively,
with some hardcore-ish shouting in some songs but a fine
clean style showing through on others.
There are also some clear
Neurosis
similarities on the lengthier tracks such as "Last Goodbye"
and "Breathe".
They released
Prisons in 2006 but no longer appear to be active.
