Biography

Finland

Finland’s Skepticism is one of the pioneers of funeral doom metal. Combining painfully slow death/doom Metal styled riffs, solemn keyboards and sparse percussion with deep growling, boundaries were pushed once again.

The band uses four instruments: drums, played with felt beaters, keyboards with organ pedals, guitar, and vocals. With this, they create songs that are both within the range of contemporary doom metal in terms of heaviness and slowness, yet far beyond the range of others where atmosphere and sound is considered.

Besides the music, Skepticism purposefully create a mysterious and abstract atmosphere, in terms of lyrics, artwork, contact with the outside world, and performance.

    I love the way they don't give a fu*k about the time that flows between two of their recording. One day, they'll just came back with a masterpiece and then they'll go away in silence. No one will heard of them util they come back 6 years, or so, later. Classy.

    Only just getting into this band, and Alloy has clicked a lot faster than Stormcrowfleet, which hasn't clicked at all yet.

    Finally, this band has grown on me. Stormcrowfleet has such an ethereal and massive atmosphere, it is impossible to not be absorbed in it.
