Through no fault of my own I find myself constantly listening to brilliant doom albums. Most that know me, know I love this sort of music (even if they don’t fully understand why). Hailing from Melbourne, Australia comes Subterranean Disposition (backed by Solitude Productions and Hypnotic Dirge Records) and their second release, aptly titled: ‘Contagiuum and the Landscapes of Failure’. As it stands I can see just how 2016 is sh...

Australië heeft ons heel wat geweldige, vernieuwende bands gebracht, maar Subterranean Disposition is niet geweldig, al doet het heel hard z’n best vernieuwend te zijn. De tweede plaat van allesdoener Terry Vainoras, Contagiuum and the Landscapes of Failure is in twee worden samen te vatten: niet goed.

Terry Vainoras è un musicista di un certo peso all’interno della scena doom australiana, essendo stato parte, sia pure in maniera fugace, di band come gli immensi Cryptal Darkness e della loro successiva incarnazione The Eternal, entrambe creature del più noto Mark Kelson, con il quale il nostro ha peraltro condiviso le sorti degli In Somnius Dei.

Contagiuum and the Landscapes of Failure è il secondo full length dei Subterranean Dispos...

*Mild spoiler alert: a fraction over three minutes into this album, it was already becoming clear that there would be a sizeable number waiting at the end of this review. That just happens to be the time it takes to run through the delicately-introduced and dramatic instrumental introduction, and for the sublimely-crafted instrumental layers being fed into 'Wooden Kimono Fixative' to have built up guitar, drums, bass and introduce the f...

The debut from Melbourne’s Subterranean Disposition was an enthralling slab of doom with the inclusions of saxophone, female vocals and touches of other outside influences keeping it interesting from beginning to end. Contagiuum and the Landscapes of Failure does exactly what a sophomore album should, it improves on every element and expands the sound even further.

The saxophone is back within the first five minutes to set the mood, i...
