 :: katatonia // chat ::
it is a typical katatonia album, whereas it has to be listened to lots of times to be understood and appreciated.
the title track is one of katatonia`s most overwhelming songs ever created; this song is simply a masterpiece, the only negative part being its length which resides at almost 3 minutes (yeah i`m obsessed with long songs).
yes, there are similar bands, like autumnblaze or rapture, but they are inferior to katatonia, whether it comes to musical composition, lyrics or the general depressive feeling one can feel throughout songs like 'day', 'deadhouse' or 'sweet nurse'.

 Doom-metal.com: Reviews - Katatonia
The monotone or numb sound Katatonia is known for is present on this album, but all in all it is more a dark and sickening sound that defines this album.
According to the members of Katatonia, this album was "recorded and mixed...during one lonely day in early september 1994".
Once again I advice fans of the new Katatonia albums to listen to this album before getting it, as it truly very different from the new work.

 Katatonia
Katatonia continue their venture into the cleaner vocal territory and shorter songs that they'd begun on the previous album, and, if you want the truth, this doesn't sound too musically or stylistically different than Discouraged Ones.
I want this to be my favorite Katatonia album.
Katatonia's goal is to 'express depression through music' or so they say, and they create a blend of gothic Cure-esque rock and death/doom metal that does have a unique sound to it.

Katatonia has surpassed their last release with an album brimming with musical experimentation.
Sometimes described as the lost step-child of the incredible Opeth, Katatonia continues to amaze listeners with their intricate arrangements and hard-as-nails lyrics.
i realize these may be Katatonia's influences of late, and a lot of folks obviously love it, but the songs don't seem to have as much feeling to them as on previous releases, even after multiple listens.

 Katatonia: Melancholic Atmospheric Metal/Rock
The release of this four song EP is to prepare fans for the third Katatonia album, Discouraged Ones, as it features two songs that are to be included on the album, as well as two rare tracks that will not.
Where those bands had roots more in death metal, Katatonia had a sound that seemed more black-rooted, making for an album that was far more bleak than any of the doom albums of that time.
But Katatonia are not a carbon copy of the UK doomsters, as they are more concerned with enveloping the listener in total hopelessness and bleak misery, making for songs that at times reach and exceed the fifteen minute mark.

 Katatonia Syndrome --- h i s t o r y
This KATATONIA release is by right considered to be one of the best albums of 1993, and the song "Without God" have become a real extremhit.
Before the debut LP have died down, in 1994 the band signed a contract for issuing several albums with italian Avantgarde Music, who reissued '92 mini right away and gave way to the next release.
But the song "Day" is worthy of note, this is ballade per se, executed by clean electric guitar (leading instrument here), it is filled with atmospheric sorrow to the most abysmal depths, and one more thing: this is the only song on this album, where all vocals belong to Renkse.

Maybe this is due to the fact that Katatonia produced the album themselves; maybe it was the persuasive use of light and dark, used to illustrate perfectly the emotional gravitas of the songs, either way this was the album that made the whole world sit up and listen.
Realising that Katatonia were perfect for their roster of highly original acts, the label offered the band a long-term deal, spanning five albums.
The album was released suitably matching the album title in December 1993 and was an immediate hit with the critics.

 Katatonia - Satan Stole My Teddybear
Katatonia seems to realize this and are tailoring their songs to work around his melodies.
Katatonia may not be as familiar as the leaders of the "atmospheric black metal bands" (that little ring that includes Rotting Christ, Alastis, Opeth, Samael, among others), but you can tell that they're onto something with this album.
The basic impetus to Katatonia's style is the certain guitar style that Blackheim plays on the band's work.

 Doom-metal.com: Bandlist The 3rd and the Mortal
Katatonia to this day is one of the strongest and best known dark musical acts and also a show of how a band can reinvent itself without losing its emotional impact.
The later Katatonia albums are not really considered doom-metal and by some, not even considered metal.
One of the most emotional bands to this day, Katatonia's releases can be broken up into roughly 3 distinct phases.

 Katatonia
This is actually the heaviest track on the album.
After their 1996 milestone "Brave Murder Day" Katatonia embarked on another approach to their sound, cutting out the death vocals and replacing them with a clean melodic vocal style and shortening their songs to an almost pop structure.
From their misanthropic dark beginnings to their recent melancholic pop structured music, Katatonia has in some way stayed with a consistent formula of depression, melancholia, desperation and desolation.

 Rough Edge: Katatonia CD Reviews
Katatonia is Jonas Renske on lead vocals, guitars, and drums; Anders Nystrom on guitars, keyboards, and backing vocals; Micke Oretoft on bass; and Fred Normann on guitars.
Aside from songs that initially all sound alike upon the first few listens, "Discouraged Ones" is a very good listening experience.
Minimalist lyrics and occasionally too strum-y rhythms without enough 'oomph' to jazz up the tunes is the easiest, albeit insufficient, way to describe Katatonia.

Katatonia's songwriting process is not a linear one either, according to Jonas.
Katatonia have always remained, throughout their now ten-year long career, a truly mesmerising band, musically thriving in darkened woe, heart-breaking bleakness and majestic delusion.
Anders [Nystrom, guitarist] is the band's main songwriter and he can really do a lot when it comes to making music, but it comes in spurts.

And for people in the metal scene interested in the influential bands that Katatonia listened to over the years would be of course The Cure, Fields of the Nephilim, Slowdive, etc., etc.

 THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - KATATONIA - Discouraged Ones
KATATONIA are one of my many favourite bands from the Swedish Metal scene, but it wasn’t until “Tonight’s Decision” I started to follow their career; it’s a good thing I searched backwards in their catalogue and discovered “Brave Murder Day” and this album, both very good albums.
The sound is ok with a subtle rawness on the guitars, not the most euphoric sound to come out of Sunlight Studios but I think the production works for the songs instead working against them.
’s KATATONIA on “Discouraged Ones”, a CD which demanded change after the crestfallen masterpiece that was “Brave Murder Day”.

 BNR Metal Pages -- Katatonia
Katatonia have come a long way since the slow, sorrowful doomdeath sounds of Dance Of December Souls.
Like others in the doomdeath field, the progression has been toward clean vocals and a less heavyhanded (though still metallic) songwriting style, with the new material such as Tonight's Decision and Last Fair Deal Gone Down bordering on alternative metal (albeit a darker, heavier version) at times.

While the UK seemed to be the epicenter of doom metal in the 90's, Sweden's Katatonia proved to be one of the genre's finest bands, releasing their stunning debut Dance of December Souls in 1993,...
The first of two Katatonia discs to feature Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth subbing for regular vocalist Jonas Renske, Brave Murder Day is perhaps the most thorough and accomplished first-phase release from the Swedish death/doom outfit.
The music is simple, almost trance-like gothic metal topped with Åkerfeldt's signature shouts and growls.

 InternetEd Reviews: Katatonia- Last Fair Deal Gone Down
On this release, Katatonia has eased up a bit on the metal side, though there are still crunchy riffs and downtuned guitars throughout the album.
The most noticeable changes in the band occur in their song structures, which are much more loose and open to improvisation than before, and in the vocals, which are used in a higher range than ever before and are reminiscent of the controlled falsetto voice that Jeff Buckley had once perfected.
On their last two full-length records, Discouraged Ones and Tonight's Decision, the band had found a formula that fit them, mixing doom metal rhythms with alternative rock melodies to create a sound that was completely their own.

 THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - KATATONIA - Ghosts Of The Sun
The heavier guitars also mark a new era for KATATONIA, as the new sound is significantly different from previous albums.
I don't mean to say that KATATONIA have become some brutal Death Metal band, but the guitars have definitely gotten some added crunch to them, so much so, that it initially detracts from the melody lines that KATATONIA is known for.
Jonas' vocals, although less despondent than on previous albums, can still be pegged as one of the highlights of the disc.

 Katatonia biography @ Tartareandesire.com
The idea of KATATONIA was born back in late 1987, by the 13-year-old BLACKHEIM (guitar) and LORD SETH (drums and vocals) with the intention of playing extreme music influenced by early BATHORY and CELTIC FROST.
The band started to rehearse a little in 1988 and composed some very primitive and amateurish songs in a pure black metal vein.
The deal has been then renewed for another full length album, recorded during summer 1996 again at Unisound Studio; album title is "BRAVE MURDER DAY" and shiws once again an enormous step forward into an even more original sound.

 Katatonia - Melodic Doom/Black Metal
Yet instrumentation is precise, and rock theory has been expanded for creativity in delivering the dynamic shape of atmosphere across a range of phrases, giving nods to the classics of black metal and their power in breaking musical ideas into melody.
These riffs have been heard before, with one being the same general pattern as "Dead Skin Mask" from Slayer and another being reminiscent of Dismember, the fourth track on Katatonia borrowing roughly from the first album of those Swedish gods (Override of the Overtures).
