MAR DE GRISES - STREAM INWARDS (2010)


genre : melodic doom death
similar bands : In mourning, Daylight Dies, In Vein, Paradise Lost, Anathema
origin : Chile
strong spot : songwriting, guitars production
weak spot : common chord progressions

Previous post was from Mexico, this one is from Chile..! Very good melodic doom death metal that combines clever and catchy songwrting with a very good and modern production. Even though most of the songs are slow, Mar De Grises by no means become boring. There's a sad,depressing  mood that seems to flow naturally from within their music and a tendency towards experimentation. Their sound is very close to the hybrid that nowadays is called post-metal.My only objection is the absence of unusual chord progressions, since most of the melodies used here sound quite familiar.
