CLOUDS (RO/UK)
Atmospheric Doom/Death MetalFormed in 2013 by Daniel Neagoe (Eye Of Solitude, Shape Of Despair, Pantheist), the Clouds roster is quite simply a Doom supergroup, also comprising Jarno Salomaa (Shape of Despair), Kostas Panagiotou (Pantheist), Pim Blankenstein (Officium Triste) and Jón Aldará (Hamferð) and many more musicians. Their sound contains familiar elements of all the above-mentioned bands, all blended into a very pure, atmospheric delivery of generally slow-paced and sad, beautiful music. They played a series of shows in very special locations such as Amuz (Antwerp’s own cathedral), festivals like Doom Over Kiev, Dutch Doom Days, Doom Over Bucharest, Metal Gates and many others. In 2020 the 4th album ”Durere” was released and the band will be touring in its support with the renewed tracklist.

WHO DIES IN SIBERIAN SLUSH (RUS)
Funeral Doom/Death MetalFounded in April 2003, originally as a solo project, Who Dies In Siberian Slush (WDISS) became a full band in 2008, and can be considered the style founders of Russian Funeral Death Doom. The band describes their sound as „drawing inspiration for their creativity from Russian culture and making their music absolutely Russian in spirit. This is the deathly grief of funeral doom metal, sounding like a last long farewell, painted in agonizing colors by the sounds of a flute and a trombone“. Their Funeral-paced Death/Doom displays a very melodic and at times even gentle side, set off against cavernous growls that can make for an unsettling and compelling contrast to the complex and often delicate multi-instrument arrangements.
