My Dying Bride is a Doom metal band that was at the forefront of the English Doom movement in the early 90s that included such bands as the former label mates Anathema and Paradise Lost. Formed in West Yorkshire, England, they are known for their slow yet extremely heavy riffs and haunting lyrics. Relentlessly slow, thick, heavy chords allied with remarkably morose lyrics make My Dying Bride a unique proposition and certainly a challenge to the listener. Since its debut, the Halifax based band has remained steadfast in an unwavering pursuit of extreme Metal despite, ironically enjoying the rewards of an international fan base despite the noncommercial nature of its output.
The initial formation numbered vocalist Aaron Stainthorpe, guitarists Andrew Craighan and Calvin Robertshaw plus drummer Rick Miah, who founded the band in 1990. The band released the ‘Towards The Sinister’ demo, noted for its complete absence of bass, recorded over two days in late November at Revolver Studios with Tim Walker manning the production desk. They followed this with the ‘God Is Alone’ 7” single, restricted to 1000 copies, on the French Listenable label, again utilising both Tim Walker and Revolver Studios in May 1991. The band signed to budding Yorkshire label Peaceville Records to release the ‘Symphonaire Infernus Et Spera Empyrum’ EP in 1992, debuting new bassist Ade Jackson in the process.

Never changed their direction? Sorry, but that's why I love MDB. Too many bands in this genre just rip off the same song... MDB changes and still keeps producing great music and it rarely sounds too odd (34.788%... Complete being an exception, but it is still great).

Unholy trinity - My Dying Bride Katatonia and Anathema. I think this band is the best in death doom genre.At least they never change their direction.

What is their best cd/album in your opinion? I'd like to buy one on ebay. Thanks :)

Wow, it seems lots of people are discovering MDB thanks to Bring Me Victory... that's awesome. Bring Me Victory is not my favorite song, far from it, but I think it's a really good choice if you wish to get into doom.

I'd never heard of this band before or any of their songs, but someone added me here on Last FM and they had listened to them alot. OUt of curiousity I looked up Bring Me Victory on youtube and I think its a great song and a really interesting vid. Not the type of music I usually listen to, so I'm glad to have discovered something new. I might see if I can get one of their cds.
