GRIEVING AGE(SA)
'In Aloof Lantern, Thy Bequeathed A Wailer Quietus..'

The promo campaign for Saudi Arabian Doomsters Grieving Age has begun .
After a long and gruelling process which took 5 years to complete, the 36 minutes of brutally dark death/doom which was mixed and mastered by legendary Swedish musician/producer Dan Swano, has finally been released.
The artwork/layout was handled by Aaron Stainthorpe.


Excerpt from The Metal Reporter ( full review )
"In Aloof Lantern...... utilizes the classic Doom/Death metal formula with a passionate step forward, the band sticks to the roots of the genre and tries to expand the boundaries within. If your a fan of Saturnus, and would like a more raw, sludgy and brutal sound, I highly recommend Grieving Age "


The CD is presented in an eloquently wrapped Digi-pack with full lyrics.

Contact us here if you would like to purchase a copy of the album through Lugga Music.

Other distributers are also asked to get in touch for wholesale prices

We will shortly be making all merchandise (CD's,Tourshirts,Posters etc) and some other exclusive items related to our artists available via our webshop.
