CD in deluxe Digipak with 12-page booklet ON THORNS I LAY are Greek titans. Where their peers in Rotting Christ, Septic Flesh, Nightfall were swayed more by symphonic and black metal, this Athens band went for a taste of the gothic on their 1994 debut. Which makes sense; after all, they are named after a Shakespearean sonnet. ON THORNS I LAY have released 9 albums so far such as Orama, Crystal Tears, Aegean Sorrow and Threnos gaining great reviews in (Scream Norway, album of the month, Inferno Finland 5/5, Metal Storm Top 5 albums of 2020 and many others.). The have shared the stage with great bands such as Dream Theater, In Flames, Anathema, Amorphis, Katatonia, Rotting Christ, Tiamat, The Gathering, Satyricon, Septic Flesh and many more. Their music style is pure atmospheric melodic doom death metal! The band's last album "Threnos" followed the path of atmospheric, yet emotional Doom Death Metal - paying tribute to the roots and representing the trademark sound of the band once again. ON THORNS I LAY continue to tell dense stories of loss and despair. Thirty years and ten albums later, ON THORNS I LAY are releasing their first album with Season of Mist. Their self-titled LP pushes death-doom to epic heights, casting a newborn Gothic glow over muscular riffs and cavernous vocals hearkening back to the halcyon days of early '90s Peaceville death-doom.
