AHAB - Boats Of The Glen Carrig (Vinyl) (2LP)

German nautic doomers Ahab have not only created their very own subgenre, they are also incomparable dabblers in solemn melancholy!
The Boats of the Glen Carrig is a novel by William Hope Hodgson from 1907 that tells the gruesome story of survival after shipwreck: the ice-cold embrace of the sea this as always has been turned to molten lead in the utmost atmospheric manner by Ahab!
Since the band's founding in late 2004, the four-piece has continuously worked its way to the top of (funeral) doom.
The Boats of the Glen Carrig is their magnum opus and is gracefully nestled in between slow-motion anthems and haunting melodies.
