Our Take

The autumnal tones of OCTOBER TIDE's Rain Without End envelope the listener in a melancholic embrace, as if they've stumbled into a rainy day in the heart of Sweden. The band, composed of ex-Katatonia members, knows a thing or two about creating a mood, and they do so with finesse on this debut album.

From the opening track "12 Days of Rain," the band sets the tone with crushing riffs and haunting melodies that linger long after the last note fades. Vocalist Jonas Renkse's growls are like thunder echoing across a desolate landscape, while the clean vocals add a touch of vulnerability to the mix.

Tracks like "Infinite Submission" and "Blue Gallery" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend aggression and atmosphere, creating a sonic landscape that is as alluring as it is devastating. The guitar work is particularly impressive, with intricate riffs and mesmerizing solos that pull the listener deeper into the album's gloomy embrace.

While Rain Without End may not reinvent the wheel, it is a solid debut that showcases OCTOBER TIDE's ability to create evocative music that straddles the line between beauty and brutality. So grab a cup of tea, light a candle, and let the rain wash over you as you lose yourself in this captivating release.

About the artist

October Tide

Swedish death/doom metal band October Tide emerged from the depths of Gothenburg in 1995, formed by former Katatonia members Fredrik Norrman and Jonas Renkse. With a sound that balances the guttural growls of classic death metal and the melancholic melodies of gothic doom, October Tide have carved out their own niche in the metal scene. Their 1997 debut album, "Rain Without End," set the tone for their career with its blend of crushing riffs and haunting atmosphere. Since then, October Tide have continued to push the boundaries of their genre, with albums like "Grey Dawn" and "A Thin Shell" showcasing their evolution as musicians. Known for their raw intensity and emotional depth, October Tide's music is not for the faint of heart. With songs that explore themes of loss, despair, and the human condition, their music is a cathartic experience for fans of heavy metal. Catch October Tide live and witness their powerful stage presence, as they bring their dark and brooding sounds to life. With a discography that spans over two decades, October Tide are a force to be reckoned with in the world of metal music. So crank up the volume, grab a drink, and let October Tide take you on a journey through the shadows.
