With their fourth release, NEGATIVE MEGALOMANIA, Italian dark/doom metal
combo Forgotten Tomb continue on the twisted path they've been
traveling, albeit with some new forks in the road. Like their previous
releases, the music is oppressively bleak, with slow to mid-tempo dirges
dominating. This time, however, the band's evolution includes
surprisingly clear vocals from lead depressive Herr Morbid. His usual
tormented growls are now paired with more traditional singing, only
making the grim, suicidal, lyrical content all the more crystalline.
While black metal is an obvious stylistic touchstone, Forgotten Tomb
also looks to classic doom influences like Black Sabbath and Mercyful
Fate. With atmospheric guitars creating a gloomy haze and coloring the
aggression a moody, introspective shade, NEGATIVE MEGALOMANIA marks a
comfortable fusion of metal crunch with funereal ambiance.
