Vin De Mia Trix is such a beautiful band. Rarely do you come across such evocative and progressive Doom Metal music. It’s at once remindful of Ennui, especially the band’s recent material. In that, it’s almost as wistful and employs stirring leads to create a dramatic effect against the backdrop of plodding, despondent music. The band doesn’t seem to adhere to the firm Funeral Doom Metal template and like Esote...

If anything is most clear to me while writing this, it’s that Vin de Mia Trix wrote and recorded Once Hidden from Sight with the best of intentions. Impressions of melancholy and inner-looking sadness seep from every moment of the Ukrainian act’s debut. Though the death-doom hybrid genre is rarely known for its urgency, Vin de Mia Trix’s painfully slow, hour-long testament to woe and solitude seeks to test the listener...

Since their formation the band has seen a few line-up changes and currently only have one founding member remaining; guitarist Nightspirit. After numerous gigs and tons of self promotion the band have found themselves on the wings of Hypnotic Dirge...

It is strongly appreciable that the album “Once Hidden from Sight” has sprang out from the post-Soviet block. This time, these Ukrainians Vin de Mia Trix bring out their debut full-length album. I rush to say that this release is lonesome. What does this metaphor mean? The CD really substantially lacks of solidity, depth and rudimentary heaviness. In those places where two guitars (rhythmic and solo) should cons...

The Vin de Mia Trix are not a new knowledge to aristocrazia webzine: a little less than three years ago, the writer was in fact the pleasure of writing about "El Sueno De La Razon Produce Monstruos" , the debut ep Ukrainian. Now it is with renewed pleasure that I present "Once Hidden From Sight", the first test for the long haul.

Important to emphasize is the fact that the boys have not changed...

This album is a co-operation, joint venture of sorts or a co-production if you will, between Canadian Hypnotic Dirge Records and Russian Solitude Productions, whereas the band Vin de Mia Trix originates from The Ukraine, and from whom 'Once Hidden From Sight' is a first full-length recording.

The band mixes a plethora of lyrical themes and languages, from English to French to Sanskrit, apparently bearing some spiritual / phi...

The Vin de Mia Trix (do not ask me what it means or what language it is) despite the album title in English and some song titles in French and the other in Spanish, are Ukrainians from Kiev, and with this "Once in the welter sight" come their debut album doom / death metal in the long run. 
The music proposed by VDMT is profound, sometimes quite vague on riffs and austere, more often than not ...

Ambitious … yes, ambitious seems to be a proper term for describing the performance of the band on this recording. Ambitious. A glance over the track list reveals this aspect readily. Also the name of the band fits into this perception quite neatly. Therefore, the aspect of putting all elements, facets and impressions together into a coherent picture is anything but easy. Is the track title of the opener a reference to ...

"Once Hidden From Sight" is the first full-length of these Ukrainian doomsters. This album offers more than an hour of atmospheric death / doom, which irresistibly reminds of My Dying Bride and Mourning Beloveth. The album is opened by a nine minute composition “A Study In Scarlet “ which starts with a guitar, almost identical to the one in “The Cry of Mankind”. Even the remainder of the song is based on the ...

Apart from Drudkh and the side projects associated with Drudkh, I don't actually know any bands from Ukraine. The doom metallers in Vin de Mia Trix mean to change that with "Once Hidden From Sight", their debut album. The band has existed since 2007, but they only released a demo and an EP before this album's release in late 2013. Clocking in at just over an hour in length, it's an ambitious debut showcasing the many different strengths...

One should not be fooled by the name of the band and the album cover: Vin de Mia Trix are Ukrainians and make Doom Metal, even though one may suspect until something else. Since 2007 Vin de Mia Trix already exist, until 2009 one however has done, how to achieve a stable line-up and only now they released the debut album, the album cover but suggesting what to expect: A walk to Ying and Ya...

Based on the band name one would expect a collective that resides in Mediterranean areas, but on the contrary. We are dealing with a band hailing from Ukraine, active since 2007 in the doom/death metal genre. Earlier they have released an EP and a demo, but with Once Hidden From Sight they are ready with a full length debut album. Pivotal man appears to be guitarist Serge Pokhvala as composer and in his Nightspirit Studios re...

Vin De Mia Trix have been around for a while: since 2007, in fact. After a couple of turbulent years, their line-up stabilised in 2009 and the Ukrainian band followed on from that with a self-released demo, an EP on Satanarsa Records and, finally, this debut full-length - three years in the making. Its announcement as a joint release, through the increasingly-Doom-rostered Hypnotic Dirge Records and renowned stalwart Solitude Product...

The Ukrainians Vin de Mia Trix belong to a doom scene of birth relatively recent but growing, not only from a numerical point of view.

Having dealt with in recent weeks the work of Mournful Gust , certainly more oriented sounds gothiche, Once Hidden From Sight gives us back to the origins of death-doom from the first notes with his opening words guitar that carries the unmistakable mark of a milestone...

Ukrainian party with the mysterious name Vin de Mia Trix dates its origin to 2007, and despite being the much missed, it does not automatically mean that it would in its creation was to know. So, to say it to the right level, when talking about the little, and by that I mean one EP, aptly titled demo "Promo" and of course the actual debut "Once Hidden from Sight" , which on more than sixty minute...

A hypnotic journey and fascinating landscapes in funeral doom tinged with ferocity death metal is what we savor note after note in the debut album of the Ukrainians Vin de Mia Trix , entitled Once Hidden From Sight .

An album of eight tracks made quite long, sometimes mournful, who make their atmospheres strong point, with rides doom rich acoustic moments of tremendous impact on mood and...

Coming from Ukraine, Vin de Mia Trix, have just landed their debut full-length, entitled Once Hidden From Sight. The doom/death band is encompassing all the virtues of the first albums of bands such as Anathema and Paradise Lost along with the devastating melancholy of My Dying Bride. Combined with a more melodic approach towards the doom/death genre, the band is brought closer in style also with acts such as Saturnus.

 Funeral doom from the Ukraine here and this debut sports a nice cover if you shell out for the CD rather than the free download on their bandcamp page. ‘A Study In Scarlet’ is the first song and it begins in traditional style with a persistent, simple melodic refrain wandering across a sedate, stately riff. In style this is more in the early Ahab mode rather than the Skepticism or Unholy schools. Long as you’d expect, th...

When the world ends, will you fight it, or let the tide take you under?

Doom has always been ‘one of those genres’. A whole lot of give, equal amounts of take, it’s fair that metal has developed over the years, after all it’s the most expansive musical genres ever to grace the earth. With all of metal’s sub-genres there’s some that just simply sit on the fence between two or three. It’s like a traveler not knowing whic...
