'Trinity' is a collection of Yorkshire gothic doom legends My Dying Bride's first three EPs, released between 1991 and 1994.
The first three tracks are from 'Symphonaire Infernus et Spera Empyrium', consisting of a mix slow and sludgy doom and mid-to-fast-tempo passages of unashamedly raw and uncomplicated rumbling death metal. The songs offer up some incredibly guttural and sickening growls courtesy of frontman Aaron Stainthorpe and have an ominous and claustrophobic feel, whilst the lumbering doom sections are accompanied by funereal violin.

Did you know that Irish sensation Enya was in ...
Advantages: extensive changes create the best album to date Disadvantages: not really any
