The Swedish gothic doom metal band Draconian have released another new track, entitled “No Greater Sorrow”, not long after they released their 2008 full length album “Turning Season Within”.
I don’t know if this single was a leftover from the “Turning Season Within” recording process or under what circumstances this song came into existence, but I’m very glad it did. “No Greater Sorrow” is a return to the more doom-focused style found in their earlier albums, but it most reminds me of their material from the “Arcane Rain Fell” album, which is (in my opinion) their best album, and I wouldn’t be surprised to hear this song is a leftover from that era.
The song itself is bleak, depressive and atmospheric, more so than their last couple of albums, where the gothic side of their music is more prevalent. Anybody who enjoyed any of Draconian’s earlier albums will enjoy what this track has to offer, as this single has everything you would possibly want to hear in a doom metal song.
I’m hopeful they continue on with this doomier style on their future releases, but I’d still be very happy if they stuck with emphasizing the gothier side of their music, because Draconian have proven they know how to successfully blend the two styles together.
It was made available as a download only track, but it is absolutely worth getting if you're into this type of music. Draconian fans (and doom metal fans in general) will definitely enjoy what this track has to offer.
