Hailing from Saxony, Germany Frowning is a one man project delivering dark, melancholic Funeral Doom, formed in 2011 the band has released a few singles,one split and two full length albums including this one simply entitled Extinct.
Creating an atmosphere so much colder & darker from his previous album Funeral Impressions sole member Val takes influence from such Funeral Doom legends like Evoken & Pantheist, without doubt this album creates an epicly constructed masterpiece,giving the listener a monumentally phenomenal album to get lost in, Extinct delivers five tracks of mournful gut wrenching vocals, epic sounscapes with Drone like effect and an eerie and desolate atmosphere, the added guest vocal apperaces of Stanislav of Suffer Yourself on opening track Nocturnal Void & Hejkal of Ad Cinerem on Encumbered By Vermin adds a different layer of atmosphere to the tracks on offer, as a whole this album is more mature then the previous album Funeral Impression offering a much darker atmosphere and an added heaviness that will have fans mesmerized.
Frowning have raised the bar significantly since their last release and will no doubt have many more people paying attention to the band, this is an album well worth it's weight in gold and offers many qualities that fans of Funeral Doom will be drooling about for years to come,also what awaits us in the future will surely create a bigger fan base for this band.
