Like Gods of the Sun

My Dying Bride have been the leading light of doom metal since their debut album "As The Flower Withers" was released on Peaceville Records back in 1992. Influenced by acts such as Celtic Frost and Candlemass, the band's heavy atmospherics have carved a huge worldwide following over the years and they remain at the pinnacle of the genre and one of the most instantly distinguishable metal bands. My Dying Bride released 3 albums and as many EP's before launching the massive album Like Gods Of The Sun onto an unsuspecting world in 1996. The album became a huge hit among the world's metal press, further cementing the band's legacy as one of the UKs most accomplished & important extreme metal acts with their perfected style of gothic doom. "Like Gods Of The Sun is littered with classic material, and stands up proud against anything 1996 could throw at it, given the number of flops this year to see a band of their generation not only survive the slings and arrows of their outrageous fortune but get better is surely some kind of victory." Terrorizer.

Dismal and dark as usual, Like Gods of the Sun contains all the essential My Dying Bride characteristics.
