"Skepticism plays "funeral doom metal" - slow, heavy, brooding. This is one 27-minute song, which I didn't realize when I bought it. However, it's a multi-part song and almost feels like a complete, but short, album. Skepticism seems to enjoy seeing just how slow they can play and still keep a beat, which they manage to do throughout. If you like to be able to understand lyrics, this probably isn't for you. The lyrics are a kind of low growling mumble, but they serve to set the mood, which is depressing, cold and bleak - like a Finnish winter night."
