Cult of Luna

Cult of Luna is a swedish post-metal/sludge/doom band. So far they've released seven albums more or less of which some has grown to become classics in the post-metal scene. They're up there with the bands such as Isis and Neurosis.

My favorite albums is probably the first S/T "Cult of Luna", "Somewhere along the Highway" and "Eternal Kingdom".

"Eternal Kingdom" has an very intresting story behind it's making. When the band was rehearsing in a old mental institution they found a diary from a former inmate called "Holger Nilsson" who had written these stories about a kingdom in the north, controlled by evil creatures blaming them for ther murder of his wife. Ahh, I won't tell you anymore about this story you can listen to the album Oh, Cult of Luna has also produced a book out of this story actually. Haven't read it myself yet but I will in the near future

I just grabbed Somewhere Along The Highway. I'll check it out in a bit.

Yay! Cult of luna has begun the writing of a new album. Here's a link to their website where you can find a video from some of the writing sequence: http://cultofluna.com/

I was just going to download their whole discography and I accidently found this (all their albums in 320kbps). Enjoy.
