Aegean Sorrow, by On Thorns I Lay

Aegean Sorrow

by On Thorns I Lay

supported by

nakilep This was inspired by and dedicated to all the refugees who drowned in the Aegean trying to flee the atrocities taking place in the middle eastern areas of the Asian continent, mainly Syria. It has been an ongoing tragedy that sharply contrasts the natural beauty the Aegean waters/beaches are known for. The awareness of carefree vacationers existing side by side with desolate grief stricken people is encapsulated very efficiently in the album. Hence the whimper and not the roar at the end.

RidgeForest A strong album from this band who have ventured through different kind of gothic metal styles. This one might be their heaviest and doomiest so far but also one of the best. Favorite track: Aegean Sorrow.

sirioussirius It's was a magic that you returned to your old own style. Addicted to your album "Orama" it's a pleasure to listen to your new albums.
Tuneful and strong, lyrics awesome.
Love you guys)

about

Long-running Greek death/doom troupe ON THORNS I LAY is unleashing their eighth studio offering this spring 2018 titled Aegean Sorrow.

Easily among the most consuming records of their more than twenty-year career, Aegean Sorrow fuses seemingly clashing concepts of catchy melodies and an incessantly mournful ambiance throughout.

“After the recordings of our seventh album Eternal Silence, which took place back in 2004 the band decided to take a long pause because we felt that we were losing our musical identity. In 2015, we felt the need to write music again and this is how Aegean Sorrow was created. It is a mix taken from our first demos and our first four albums back in the '90s, but with a modern sound. It is exactly what we love to hear, first of all, as fans. No trends, just pure feelings and music.”
