It is never too late to stumble upon a new album that was released in late 2013. In this case, amazing ambient doom metallers Nocturnal Lust, who come from the hot and fiery area of Rio de Janeiro, came to Doommantia with their album to share with the world called Desolation.
To make things even more interesting, there are only two band members. One in Rio, while the other resides in Connecticut. They only go by one letter initials as well. The artwork is an earthy green background, with what looks like a moth on the front.
Simplistic, it seems almost like a Type O Negative inspired cover; colors and all. Their first track, "Crawl" is an intro clocking in at just under ten minutes long. Not so complex in the beginning, but soon progresses into a nice and slow instrumental masterpiece that is easy to lose yourself in.
Right after "Crawl" comes in "Nothing", which is just as instrumental. Throughout this entire six track album, I was able to tune out and draw to my heart's content. For me and most of you, that is a good sign that it flows in the moment and it is an album that is ambient, sad, and calming all in one package.
