Funeral Fog This is an incredible album! Full of atmosphere & fantastic musicianship. This is an album you can sleep to & just enjoy letting it hit you how great this is. Major thanks to YomaBarr for telling me about this band! Favorite track: Shrouded In Mourning.

YomaBarr This is like good wine - the older, the better and goes to your head too. I've just looked at the release date - yeah, it's been already a year with this beauty.

Enthralling. No.1 debut release of 2019.

I haven't listened to this for a while and forgot how awesomely good this was. Ethereal Darkness!!! Where are you?!!

harmaajoki A bit of black, a bit of doom, based on quality melodic death. It is driven by the inner emotion like some of the best bands in this genre.
I saw the mist. I tasted the darkness.
Favorite track: Time.

666below Great album, and just received the matching T shirt: embrace the darkness!

nebulousone This is a really solid melodic death metal record. Couldn't find a track I didn't like. Favorite track: Flow Into The Sea.

about

Smoke And Shadows, the debut album from Ethereal Darkness, rewards the listener with a truly stunning hypnotic experience. A conceptual album about how our lives are rivers that just flow into the sea, the entirety of the 8 songs revolves around this idea and provides the perfect listening session for the dark and lonely winter evenings. Melancholic but hopeful guitar melodies, epic atmospheres, mesmerizing drum patterns and crushing vocals together with thoughtful lyrics that speak about loss, love, acceptance, hope and forgiveness.

"Smoke and Shadows is quite an engrossing, addictive debut by a new and unheralded [...] band. [...] Ethereal Darkness is operating at a high level right out of the gate, crafting mountains of mood and rivers of glum atmosphere. There’s a lot of potential here, and I’m very interested to hear what comes next for this project. If you appreciate dark, morose melodeath, you should definitely give this a serious spin or three. A happy surprise for early 2019."

"Many things about “Smoke and Shadows” makes me feel like it’s not a debut album at all. Everything from the mature composition style to the solid production gives the impression that this band really knows what its doing from the start."

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
