On lonely towers (CD, fra Barren Earth

With their third album "On Lonely Towers", the Finnish dramatists 'Barren Earth' present quite an opulent and visionary output. 'Barren Earth' consists of members of Kreator, Moonsorrow and (former) Amorphis inviting you to a trip from really heavy, doomy death metal to 70's prog and folk. The album's two predecessors have already justly been celebrated in particular by fans of Opeth and Amorphis; however, the upcoming output is advertising an entirely impressive evolution resulting in more severe, but also more epic and more atmospheric sound than ever before. "On Lonely Towers" is visually perfected by a gloomy artwork by Travis Smith (Opeth, Katatonia, Death).
