Woods of Ypres

This is a quite superb album by Woods of Ypres, a Ontario based Black/Doom Band. The sounds on the album range from acoustic finger picking to slow-heavy electric guitar with harsh black metal style vocals. Lyrically, Pursuit of the Sun and Allure of the Earth is about Summer, the Earth, the woods, nature, sadness, and despair. their instruments and vocals create an arctic, earthy sound, including a mix of clean and harsh vocals, clean, acoustic, and electric guitars.
Pursuit is the most recent release by this band, though a new one is scheduled for a final pressing at the end of July 2007. This album was released by Krankenhaus records in 2004. There are no particular notes about this album regarding song structure.
