Bio:

Memory Garden is a doom metal and heavy metal band from Kumla, Sweden.They were signed to Metal Blade Records until 2002, moved to Vic Records in 2006 and in 2012 returned to metal Blade to record Doomain (2013).The band was formed in December 1992, got signed by the small Swedish label Heathendoom Music, and released Forever EP (1995) and debut full-length Tides (1996), both recorded at Fredman Studios by producer Fredrik Norman. In 1996, joined by guitarist Simon Johansson (ex-Fifth Reason, Abstract Algebra) they were signed by Metal Blade Records and in 1998 released Verdict of Posterity, recorded at the XTC Studios with producer Mike Wead (King Diamond, Mercyful Fate and others).Following the Scandinavian tour and the appearance at the Wacken Open Air in summer of 1999, Memory Garden in February 2000 recorded Mirage (again with Wead) and supported the album by a host of European shows. Having left Metal Blade in 2002, they remained in touch with Wead who helped them record Carnage Carnival, released in 2008 through Vic Records. The release was followed by numerous festivals around Europe.In September 2007 bassist Ken Johansson had to quit because of lack of time. The band then found a replacement in young Johan Fredriksson. In late October 2008, shortly after the release of Carnage Carnival, longtime rhythm guitarist and main lyricist Anders Looström left the band because of "personal priorities." Ante Mäkelä was recruited to replace Looström.In June 2011 Memory Garden started working upon their fifth album in their Kumla studio. Mixed by Dan Swanö at Unisound Studios, Doomain was released in 2013 via Metal Blade Records, to generally positive reviews.The band is said to have taken their name from the Trouble song "Memory's Garden".

Album:

Simon Johansson, the genius lead guitarist who kept Memory Garden alive since the birth of the band is still struggling to create more interesting doom metal tracks under the heavy influences of power metal. The music video of the track "The Evangelist" was the first piece of cake from the new album "Doomain", and though I hated the vocals, the performance and the mind-blowing lead guitars have really caught my attention, so I was expecting a very good album here.The nine tracks of Doomain are interesting, a lot of traditional doom touches fill the structure beneath the spirit of power metal. Candlemass, Memento Mori and Black Sabbath have always been the main influences of Memory Garden, and still these influences are obvious in this record but with more progressiveness. The fast drumming and the doomy headbanging energy are painting the sound of the tracks "The Evangelist" and "Daughters of the Sea", but the variations of the tempos made the the performance of the guitars more enjoyable than the classic and traditional doom metal sound of the 80s. The tracks "Violate & Create" and "Barren Lands" are my favorite tracks in this album, because of the charming melodies and the catchy choruses, and every minute pass these tracks shines strength and beauty.I really like the sound that Memory Garden presented in this album, especially the tough sound of the drums and malicious bassline inside the guitar tracks, but I am convinced that the vocalist doesn't fit the superb music of this release, but not all the time, because sometimes Stefan sounds acceptable. The artwork and its dark colors represent the ancient melodies of Doomain in a perfect way, I've always loved the dusty sight of the statues in the doom metal artworks, so this one has just satisfied my eyes-ears. The professional solos and the storming rhythm guitar will satisfy all the doom metal adorers in the world, so I think label "Metal Blade Records" are lucky to release such a juicy album.This is not another commercial release, its a pure\excellent doom metal release mixed with the power metal spirit, and I recommend this release for all the fans of Candlemass and Memento Mori. As a doom metal fan, I consider the lead guitar performance of this album is the best for this year, the amount of eargasm and ecstasy that you'll have while listening to the guitars will freeze every single hair on your body!
