The Year Is One [CD]

Spiritus Mortis are one of Finland's oldest doom metal bands, formed in the late '80s and steeped in the slow, heavy tradition of Black Sabbath, Candlemass and Saint Vitus. The Year Is One is one of their most celebrated records, with Sami Hynninen (Reverend Bizarre's Albert Witchfinder) on vocals. It's grand, theatrical doom with huge riffs and a real sense of drama.

Finnish label Svart Records reissues the album on CD.
