The debut EP by this Swedish band. A grim alloy of romantic blackened Death Metal, mournful Doom Metal and decaying melody. Across the 4 soul-scouring hymns, Lepra doesn’t resurrect the past: they exhume it, disfigure it and drag it into their own funeral vision. Totally recommended to those drawn to the melodic morbidity of Dissection, the forlorn spirals of Vanhelgd, the doomed haze of early Katatonia, Tribulation (“The Formulas of Death” era)…
