FROM HEAVY DAYS IN DOOMTOWN 2014 PROMOTERS:


Tonight we are extremely proud and honored to present to you one of the pioneers of the Funeral Doom genre. This band has been part of shaping this metal sub-genre and many bands have followed their lead in their 23 years of existence. Please welcome the epically amazing Finnish masters of depression, SKEPTICISM!!!

Skepticism is a Finnish metal band formed in 1991 bringing together beautiful and dark atmospheres. These atmospheres consist of northern landscapes, autumn and farmakon. The band is often stated to be one of pioneers of the funeral doom sub-genre (atmospheric, slow and heavy music with funeral dirge music nuances).

Starting out with a death metal sound in the early years, Skepticism soon began to evolve into a more distinctive style, a combination of slow doom metal and death metal with prolific use of keyboards, especially using an organ sound. The keyboards intend to create a depressive sound, rather than the gothic sound that many metal bands using keyboards tend to focus on.

In the later years Skepticism has been composing new material and performing occasional concerts mainly in European area. Skepticism is targeting to release new album in 2014, thus providing yet another extreme and beautiful experience for listeners.
