Review: Forgotten latest album "Of Past and Passion"

Almost a month ago, Turkish band Forgotten released a new album, called Of Past and Passion. And now you ask: "Yes, they did, but if they are not Black Metal, why are you featuring them here?"
Lachryma Christi says no to pretty much every band that is not Black Metal, because the point of this Webzine is supporting Black Metal bands and others related to Black Metal, primarily.
However, this Doom sound that Forgotten play in this album, reminds very much the good old days of bands such as Katatonia and Anathema, that most Black Metal fans are or were fans of.
There are not many bands playing such a beautiful and introspective and marvellously nostalgic and melancholic sound nowadays, and Forgotten do it so well. One of those rare albums that tell a lot, bring a lot of feeling and thought and passion as well, in fact.
So this is not a exception in this Webzine, but actually public service! Certainly you'll appreciate more this review after you listen to the album. This album has one problem only: Too short!
And the artwork of the cover is just amazing. So many emotions and feelings brought by one single image.
