ON THORNS I LAY are Greek titans. Where their peers in Rotting Christ, Septic Flesh, Nightfall were swayed more by symphonic and black metal, this Athens band went for a taste of the Gothic on their 1994 debut. Which makes sense; after all, they are named after a Shakespearean sonnet. Thirty years and ten albums later, On Thorns I Lay are releasing their first album with Season of Mist. Their self-titled LP pushes death-doom to epic heights, casting a newborn Gothic glow over muscular riffs and cavernous vocals hearkening back to the halcyon days of early ‘90s Peaceville death-doom.
