Go to the Black Sun website  Black Sun - Sacred Eternal Ellipse [Distortion Project Record - 2006]

Sacred Eternal Ellipse is a low fi, avant punky take on doom, with some nice creepy guitar harmonics mixed in. The tracks for the most part fairly shortly by doom standards, clocking in at four to eighty minutes mainly, making a very approachable proposition for relative quick hits of murky and surprising tuneful grim song craft.

Black sun seemed to have perfectly blended throat shredding vocals with gloomy bass feed stretches of atmospherics, which exploding into body bending heavy riffling. Along with ability to take risk's and experiment with in the genre, mixing in clear guitar’s, noise and black ambient touches and even a nod towards more traditional forms of metal and rock riffling. Making an enjoyable a varied to collection of memorable songs, all tipped with crushing black grace.

This is the bands forth album and they hold great bleak hope for the future, and could surely become one of the big names in the punishing doom scene. One of the highlights of this years metal releasers
