Barren Earth - Curse Of The Red River The (Vinyl)

Facts With a wealth of experience from internationally renowned acts, from former members of Finnish metallers Amorphis, to current members of Swallow the Sun, Moonsorrow, and Kreator, Barren Earth presents progressive and folk textured death/doom metal of the highest order on their 2010 debut album on Peaceville Records. Titled Curse of the Red River, the album combines the best elements of metal, prog, and more obscure psychedelic rock from Opeth to Pink Floyd, and Paradise Lost to Jethro Tull. The Curse of the Red River recording session took place at Seawolf Studios, Helsinki (Ghost Brigade), in Summer 2009 with mixing carried out by the prolific Dan Swanö at Unisound in Sweden (Katatonia, Opeth) who commented, "One of the best albums I have ever had the privilege to mix. The album is that good!" Artwork comes courtesy of Travis Smith (Opeth, Katatonia, Bloodbath).
