Norilsk is a Canadian doom/death/post-metal band formed in 2012 and named after the city of Norilsk located in Siberia and known as the world’s northernmost city. A region that’s covered in snow and darkness for most of the year. “Weepers Of The Land” is Norilsk’s third album, released through Canadian record label Hypnotic Dirge Records who, in the past, also worked with our fellow Belgian doomers called Marche Fun...

Review from Lords of Metal

Iets meer dan een jaar nadat Weepers Of The Land uitgekomen is bereikt ie dan eindelijk de burelen van Lords Of Metal. Dit Canadese gezelschap brengt ons prima uitgevoerde doom welke elementen uit black metal, sludge, death metal en post metal. Prijsnummer is voor mij de titletrack Weepers Of The Land. Vreemde eend echter in de doombijt hier is toch wel de cover van singer/songwriter Mylene Farmers haar deuntje Tomber 7 Fois. Op een of ...

Weepers of the Land’ is a weird album, in the sense that the band considers it a companion record to the 2017 ‘Le Passage des Glaciers’. It is the third full-length record for the Canadian band but could be called an EP perhaps due to its connective nature. But hey, we love the EP format anyways and all is well on this five track release.

Obwohl Norilsk eine Stadt in Sibirien ist, kommt die gleichnamige Band aus Kanada. 2012 wurden sie erst ins Leben gerufen, dennoch haben sie schon eine EP und drei reguläre Alben draußen. Ihre Musik auf dieser Digipack-CD ist eine interessante Mischung aus Doom-, Black und Post-Metal. Es gibt tiefe, träge, Hippie-mäßige Riffs kombiniert mit kehligem Kreischgesang. Zwischendurch gibt es immer wieder gesprochene Samples, deren Ur...

Norilsk is een Canadese death / doom band die is ontstaan in 2014. De band bracht in 2015 zijn debuut op de markt, waaruit al blijkt dat Norilsk zich niet in een hokje laat duwen. Binnen de death en doom invloeden, merkten we namelijk ook streepjes black metal tot zelfs post metal sausjes op. In 2017 zet de band dat nog wat meer in de verf met een zeer geslaagde opvolger ‘Le Passage De Glaciers’. Medio 2018 kwam eindelijk een opvolger op...
