This is a truly epic and encyclopaedic work put together by doom fanatic Aleksey Evdokimov, arguably the most active doom metal scribe in the world. Doom Metal Lexicanum 2 is the second book in the series, and is an equally massive tome, this time mostly focussing on the death-doom end of the doom metal spectrum. Within these pages you’ll find the stories of both the well-known pioneers of doom and newer acolytes, tracking the growth of the genre all the way to the present day. This book guides the reader through each band’s discography, frequently including interviews with the artists involved.
Featuring bands such as My Dying Bride, Anathema, Thergothon, Corrupted, Amorphis, Abyssic, Lake Of Tears, Paradise Lost, Lacrimas Profundere, Unholy, Thorrs Hammer, Shape Of Despair, Mindrot, Esoteric, Grand Magus, Mental Home, Mael Mordha, Sevenchurch, October Tide, Katatonia, Runemagick, Decomposed, Theatre Of Tragedy, Beyond Dawn and many many more
Plus separate lengthy interviews with:
Gregor Mackintosh (Paradise Lost), Paul ‘Hammy’ Halmshaw (Peaceville Records), Robert ‘Mags’ Magoolagen (Academy Studios), Aaron Stainthorpe and Martin Powell (My Dying Bride).
