Moss sub templum full album


"Sub Templum" is an album by British doom metal band Moss. Released in 2008, it is their first for Rise Above Records (owned by former Napalm Death and Cathedral vocalist Lee Dorrian) and second overall. It was produced by Electric Wizard guitarist/vocalist Jus Oborn, and it features 4 songs, two of which are over 20 minutes in length (with the longest, "Gate III" being 35:31).

Contents

This album saw Moss move away from the partly improvised flow of first album Cthonic Rites and towards more structured pieces, which became even more evident on 2009's following EP Tombs of the Blind Drugged. For his review, allmusic's Greg Prato gave the record 2 stars, saying that "the Moss gentlemen seem to be more interested in seeing how much air they can push out of their maxed-to-ten amplifiers than in songcraft."
