Solitude Productions presents another discovery from Belorussian heavy scene: a young perspective band Woe Unto Me with their debut album «A Step Into The Waters Of Forgetfulness», a conceptual portrait of life decadence in the frames of abstract person and mourning doom death metal. It took three years for the band to finalize the sound image of despair and new hopes doomed for another failure. It brought to the listeners 55 minutes of music and 5 reasons to see this empty world without a single light flash behind the window of your lonely room, this is a culmination of impossibility of the recognized indifference surrounding a man nowadays. «A Step Into The Waters Of Forgetfulness» is a perfect sample of high quality doom death metal: gloom, despair, melodies, atmosphere and a devotion to the genre being blurred by modern unprincipled bands. Beautiful artwork is a perfect addition to the musical part of the album.

The silent infinity that rushes upwards, completely absorbs and calms. Is this the beginning of the end or the rebirth from the ashes? One starts to understand that the existence is cyclic, it is like an autumn leaf moldering from a tired wind and giving life to timid plants with transparent souls in the spring. The noise of life is completely voiceless in comparison with the silent abyss, whose cry causes every cell of the body to dry out, sink and drown in helplessness. The subtle threads of existence that unite, explode, forming emptiness that is the flesh that can think. Life is infinite ... however, it will continue only in the eyes of the beholder, in the mind of the thinker, in the heart of the lover. This delicate border lies between two CD’s of the Woe Unto Me"s new album, “Among The Lightened Skies The Voidness Flashed”. Musically, conceptually and artistically, two album parts radically differ from each other: the first part immerses the listener in a gloomy and depressive atmosphere of versatile doom death metal, while the second part consists of acoustic melancholy, which envelops with the veil of autumn spleen and sad beauty. The album features several famous representatives of the world doom scene: Thomas A.G. Jensen (SATURNUS), Daniel Neagoe (CLOUDS, EYE OF SOLITUDE, SHAPE OF DESPAIR), Jon Aldara (HAMFERD, BARREN EARTH, CLOUDS), Patryk Zwoliński (PROGHMA-C, ex-BLINDEAD, ex-NEOLITHIC, ex-ANTIGAMA).
