This is a release to remind us that itÂ’s not only love metal the music that the Finnish can play! GLOOMY GRIM is an awesome act that moves in between black and death metal, paying dues to their main influences of the past such as VENOM, HELLHAMMER and BATHORY, always according to their own bio. I cannot claim the opposite, apart maybe from the fact that they bring it a step further. They are not a new band; they have already released four albums, all under Holy Records. The first attempt in the long-distant past, back in the 80s under the moniker of Hellstorm is said to be the first black metal formation in Finland. They finely mix CRADLE OF FILTH and OLD MANÂ’S CHILD, they are of the same level as bands like DIMMU BORGIR and IMMORTAL, and they are similar to ABYSSOS. It started as a one-man band by Agathon and today it is a quintet that has much experience in music, through extended touring. The atmosphere of their majestic metal is magical. You can get easily trapped in its melodic web. But the truly hard thing they have succeeded in is of keeping a good balance between this and the old school metal, the raw oneÂ… I am not a black metal fan, but by listening to such epic pieces of art, I could easily become one in no timeÂ… it surely has a lot of horror movie elements, as Agathon is a fan of this kind of films and he used to use as such in the past, when he was on his own and he made the first two demos by himself. I am quiet impressed and about to listen to it many more times. Well done guys, you can consider me a fan of yours from now on!

Rasvamontut on vaarallisia.Lauantai 17.05.2008 10:55

Torstaina dilleilin tallilla ja lähdin tohkeissani katsomaan pihalle jotain juttua autosta, kun kekkasin taas jotain hienoa. Enhän mä muistanut, että matkan varrella on rasvamonttu, joten astuin tyhjän päälle ja kylki edellä betoni/rauta reunaan. Saatana. Varmaan kylkiluu/luita ded, ku en esme tänään meinannu päästä sänkystä ylös. Eilen oli helvetin hauskaa olla Million Dollar Beggarssin videota tekemässä. Mut raivolla se meni läpi. Lekuriin ei viitti mennä, ellei toi tosta pahene, kun ei ne mitään siellä kumminkaan tee. Toisaalta ois hauska tietää onko tuolla jotain muutakin ded, kun joku siellä muljahtelee. Ei jaksais vaan mennä Jorviin postailemaan sitä kuutta tuntia. Toivottavasti pystyy ens viikonlopun keikan vetämään, se tässä nyt huolettaa eniten. Jeesus vastustaa mua taas ja yrittää lannistaa. Ei onnistu. Mörskälläkin saattaa olla loppu lähellä, ei oo varmaa vielä. Musta tulee sitten varmaan ihan aito trailer trashäri, jos näin käy. Nuori neito, wifebeatteri ja asuntoauto jo hallussa, vaan lutku ja peltipurkit puuttuu. Onneks rokkihommat menee suht hyvin, eli en mä tässä pian mitään kämppää ees tarvi, kun kiertelen vaan maailmaan jet set piireissä. Luutkin voi sitten vaihtaa adamantiumista tehtyihin.

Terve oon ku Damien.Maanantai 12.05.2008 18:51

Kävin terveystarkastuksessa. Arvot kaik jees, pitäsköhä lähtee tinaamaan sen kunniaks. Syödä pitäis muutaki ku leipää ja makkaraa, kuulemma. Kessuttelut tulis lopettaa tai ainaki vähentää. Hyvä mä ja mun ruumis. Ei suostunu kertoo kauan elän, eli iha turha reissu.

According to a press release, "It all began in 1984 as HELLSTORM. Agathon (vocals) got his first influences as a teenager from the bands like VENOM, HELLHAMMER and BATHORY. HELLSTORM ended quite soon, but the title 'Fuck The World, Kill The Jehova!' remained. GLOOMY GRIM used it as the first demo name. The folklore tells that HELLSTORM was the first black metal band in Finland. Agathon wanted to create dark music, music from the depth of the darkest pit of hell and with no compromises from any other band members. Agathon started GLOOMY GRIM as a one-man band. The biggest inspiration has always been the dark life itself and the soundtracks of the horror films he collected. Agathon made four albums with a strong line-up. GLOOMY GRIM has also made some furious live shows in continental Europe and the Baltic states. After the latest album, 'The Grand Hammering' (2004) sold 30,000-plus copies, GLOOMY GRIM is back on his throne!"

Audio samples are available on the GLOOMY GRIM MySpace page.

GLOOMY GRIM has been confirmed for this year's Brutal Assault festival, set to take place August 14-16 at the Jaromer Army Fortress in Josefov, Czech Republic.

To tell you the truth I wasn't expecting very much about this album. I never really was/is a big Gloomy Grim-fan, and when I pushed the 'play'-button, I still wasn't a 100% convince. Although I have to admit that it isn't as bad as I first thought it would be - this is a good thing!!

I also have a problem with Black Metal bands with synths, but Agathon (Vocals and synth) plays this very good aswell. All in all, I have to admit that this is a pretty good record. Not magnificent, but still good enough to return to the CD-player.
Favorite song: 'September Invoking The Flames (Burn, Burn, Burn)'.

Eka arvio: http://www.live4metal.com/reviews-606.htm, tosin väärällä kannella.

Shoddy promotional discs never instills enthusiasm, no matter how small the label. I have had great promo packages form the smallest of labels who appreciate the work the un-paid scribes put into reviewing music. A cd in a plastic slip case shows as much effort as going for an interview dressed in ya under pants. Thankfully, the bands music is far better than the labels promotional package.
Gloomy Grim hail from Finland, a land swarming with great bands of all extreme genres. The band formed in 1995, and this is their well conceived fifth album. The promo sheet harkens the bands music to the golden age of Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth, a fatal
mistake if ever there was one. Dimmu Borgir are far more epic in texture and utterly bereft of the stark subtleties of Gloomy Grim. Cradle of Filth never won the hearts of the very audience Gloomy Grim deserve to have, those Black Metal enthusiasts who lurk in the murky shadows away from the bright lights of mainstream dross, and in any case, Gloomy Grim do not sound like either of the aforementioned bands. Gloomy Grims brand of Symphonic Metal takes more of a sustained, and at times epic approach where the music swerves from primitive minimalism to involved aural soundscapes. There is a darker soul lurking within the music especially when the industrial like passages seep into the mix. There are also pomp driven moments that evoke the likes of Therion, as well as the more Blackened icy guitar riffs splattering into the air like flies spinning out of control. There is none of the brazen colour of Dimmu, and none of the wild gothic dynamics of Cradle. Here we have a diverse and very individual take on the symphonic theme that never falls into pure farce, always keeping one foot in the mire of underground ethics.
A most interesting and enjoyable release. www.anticulture.co.uk
