Hour Of 13
Shadow Kingdom
Records is starting to make a name for itself by signing quality
underground metal acts with a doom edge, and that's what we have here
in Hour Of 13, a duo hailing from North Carolina.
Self-described as "true original occult doom" (as good a
description as any), doom metal is certainly the driving force here,
sounding more like the DC bands on
Hellhound
than, say,
Candlemass.
There's also a clear NWOBHM influence in tracks such as "Grim Reality",
where the mood is a bit more uptempo.
The occult component brings to mind a band like
Pagan Altar,
and there is a definite 70's vibe here as there was in that band.
This isn't blindingly original but it is solidly executed and a
fine addition to a doom metal collection.
