Fans of Beseech will find much to like about the band's latest effort, 'Sunless Days', as the group continues to hone their songwriting skills, balancing harmony and power in a manner that is unforgettable and moving. One must look no further than the album's stellar lead off cut, 'Interlane', in order to find one of the most singable metal tracks of the year. Although the group's music resonates with a brooding atmosphere, it remains at once highly melodic, a feat that is difficult to accomplish. From the ethereal songcrafting of 'The Outpost' to a fairly well done version of Danzig's 'Devil's Plaything', Beseech remain nothing short of phenomenal in both their delivery and the manner in which they craft their highly tuneful music. Most importantly, this group really gels as a unit on record, their fluid yet weighty tones resonating with a united force. In 'A Bittersweet Tragedy', you'll discover the band locking into a massively gothic vibe that is as morose as the output of Villie Valo's outfit, while the juxtaposition of the male/female vocal team of Erik Molarin and Lotta Höglin lends further texture to the band's overall vibe. Recommended for fans of everything from Evanescence to Leaves' Eyes to Orphanage, 'Sunless Days' is nothing less than an astoundingly memorable collection of powerful, gothic-tinged heavy metal that you'll find yourself becoming immersed in again and again and again.

This is the best album I've heard all year! If Beseech don't make it big on this album something isn't right. Check it out and I promise you'll be hooked. All Hail BESEECH!

Slayer's 1986 thrash metal classic, Reign in Blood, was originally to be distributed by CBS. When the label refused to do so (citing the graphic nature of the material), Rick Rubin and his label, Def American, stepped in.
