OVERVIEW:
The sold-out debut album of these Maltese traditional doom metal masters is now re-released with over 2 hours of exclusive DVD material "Pilgrimages of Doom"! It contains pro filmed and edited multi-camera footage from the band's gigs at the HAMMER OF DOOM VI and DOOMSDAY IV festivals (both 2011), and bonus material: excerpts from other shows (HOA warm-up show 2009 and DOOM SHALL RISE 2010), interview, a song from Maltese TV program and a slideshow. Formed by the bassist Albert Bell of FORSAKEN fame, NOMAD SON is a '70s tinged (Hammonds!) doom band drawing influence from the trailblazing sounds of BLACK SABBATH, PENTAGRAM, TROUBLE, CANDLEMASS and SAINT VITUS. Doom is not dead - see and hear for yourself checking this molten slab of HEAVY music... The versatility of moods and tempos will not let you fall asleep - instead it can make your head bang more than once 'cause they know what "uptempo" means! A truly addictive stuff.
