What makes Nighfall’s Lament so effective is the amazing guitar-work by Filippos Koliopanos and Dimitra Zarkadoula. From start to finish, the album is loaded with downtrodden doom riffs and beauteous melodic trilling that carries you along on gossamer strands of sadness and majesty. They borrow from many established acts, but inject enough of their own identity into the compositions. This is a joy of an album to spin because of their other-worldly playing and adroit phrasing. Adding just the right amount of atmosphere, keyboardist Aris Nikoleris stays entirely in the background, never taking a lead role or allowing his playing to usurp the guitars’ primacy. Understated and tasteful for the win.It’s hard to reconcile an album as great as Nightfall’s Lament coming from such a young, unknown band, but Ocean of Grief capture a lot of Greek lighting in a bottle. This is a virtual shoe-in for my year-end list and I’ll be watching these cats so closely there may be restraining orders in my immediate future. If you love the melodic doom/death genre, sprint, do not walk to get this album. Winter is still here and this goes with the cold and dark like beer goes with other beers. An unexpected gem that must be proclaimed far and wide across the metalverse
