Brief:

Sorcerer emerged out of Stockholm in the late 80s and was one of the very early bands to champion what is now known as “epic doom metal.” Besides genre pioneers Candlemass, groups like Solitude Aeturnus, While Heaven Wept and Sorcerer were among the few groups around representing this style of metal.

Comments:
The best material on Lamenting of the Innocent sets the bar pretty high, and while the band may not always reach these heights, the album as a whole is a near-perfect release. This album is epic doom at its finest, and I highly recommend it to fans of this style.
