My Album of The Month (January)

Evoken : A Caress of The Void 2007
I found some novel dimensions of their music.The concept is surprisingly familiar entwined with illustrious verses and words.Evoken is for and about the patient listener.It's against all trade marks and commercial tips.It's dark,deep and desolate.
Once you feel it's simply easy with down-tunned slow guitar riffs and sluggish tempo,but that's exactly where the paradox arises; they've created a unique sound ,a theatrical vision and a horror atmosphere at a near perfect level.
The ensemble of piano/keyboard ,bass, lead guitar and the combination of Death growl/soft whispers is a solid composition. Undoubtedly one of the pioneers of Funeral Doom .
My favorite tracks are:
Astray in Eternal Night
Suffer A Martyr's Trial(Procession at Dusk)
and
Orogeny
