Hope

Hope is a very ironic title for Swallow the Sun's third album, because hope is something that the Finnish doom metal band offers very little of.

Talk of Finland's SWALLOW THE SUN being heirs to the throne of, depending on who you ask, MY DYING BRIDE or KATATONIA (well, the early material anyway) is not hyperbole. "Hope", the band's third release, is the sound of a band hitting its stride and exuding confidence in the majestic, European doom/...
