The Angle of Eternity

Wxmaggot I envision these songs told as ghost stories around a campfire. Great storytelling, with each song having a life of it's own. Fantastic guitar and bass tones, vintage drum sounds, and excellent vocals. The overall production of this album is a nice alternative to the murky doom that I so often enjoy. Highly recommended! Favorite track: Bog of Kildare.

Ashley Wallingford Awesome doom. Slow and plodding, with great doomy vocals (none of that screeching/yelling that turns up in too much "doom" these days), and great lyrics. One of the best albums I've heard in years... More! Favorite track: Lady in the Lake.

Threshnarr It's doom that knows how cool it is to be understated enough and has riffs that carry out the task at hand.

FDJ (Desert Psychlist) If you like your doom traditional with a touch of epic colouring thrown In then your gonna love this!

paul rote Traditional and Beautiful .

about

Based in Lansing, Michigan, Cruthu is comprised of vocalist Ryan Evans, guitarist Dan McCormick, bassist Erik Hemingsen (Scott Lehman also plays on the album), and drummer Matt Fry. The Angle of Eternity was produced by McCormick and George Szegedy at The Black Lodge in Lansing, and features cover art by Dan McDonald Studios in a grim style perfectly suited to the band’s downer and ethereal songcraft.

“The album is traditional doom metal with heavy ’70s movements and passages — well structured and deliberate,” says McCormick in assessing the aesthetic. “We were going for a more lo-fi, circa-’70s sound. Our current goal is to progress the project into some early-NWOBHM over time without compromising our traditional influence.”

Songs like the lurching “Lady in the Lake” and “Bog of Kildare” will earn understanding nods from fans of doomed greats like Trouble, Pagan Altar and The Gates of Slumber, and the progressive edge brought to “Seance” and the closing title-track make a clear statement that Cruthu offer a richness of approach to coincide with their memorable riffing and thematic lyrics.

Recorded 100 percent to tape, The Angle of Eternity weaves a natural-sounding tapestry of doom across its course, capturing a raw vision of heavy metal’s roots as righteous in its execution as its foundations. It is doom by doomers, for doomers, and readily lets the rest be as damned as they are. -The Obelisk

about

Cruthu Lansing, Michigan

Rehearsal began in spring of 2014 with intentions of creating a cohesive sound consisting of traditional and modern influences in the doom and metal genre including blues and heavy 70's rock. Our goal was not to reinvent the wheel, rather to create the music we wanted to hear. Hence the name Cruthu, Gaelic for creation. ... more
