Mindrot - Dawning/Anguish

The opening two tracks from Mindrot's classic 1995 debut, "Dawning", one of the most underrated metal albums ever. These tracks have already been uploaded separately, but they work best as a single piece, as presented here. Enjoy!

Incredibly beautiful piece of music. Mindrot was one of the most original bands of the death/doom genre. Hints of dark/gothic atmospheres, progressive touches, excellent musicianship (the drummer is insane!), oceanwide soundscapes, moving emotions, moods... Simply brilliant.

Man ... I forgot how good this is . Takes me back to my high school days .

Nearly 27 years later: I have heard a lot of Bands and Albums of this Genre. Nothing one came close to this masterpiece!!

They were and possibly still are ahead of their time.

Misery Loves Co.

[@ericsun3173]

One of my favorite albums of all time. It is still amazing after all these years.

[@brianhickam4903]

An under-appreciated masterpiece, indeed! This album is in my top 5 favorites of all time, all genres. I like to listen to it from start to finish when I have the time.

[@panostsaleridis5243]

I like Black Metal, but this Album is a MASTERPIECE!!!!!!

[@keithen77]

I used to see these guys at backyard parties in high school...parties in Orange and Tustin...So good - everyone had dreads, but hated reggae...

[@Truth_Hurts_Bad]

I can relate. Some Jamaicans were even adamant on calling me a rasta.

[@uglyguido]

One of the best bands to ever exist. Kill all the haters.

[@librerika]

I've been trying to find this song since I first heard it on a huH magazine compilation CD in the mid 90s but couldn't remember the name of the band. Luck led me here and damn, that's the song! Just as good as I remembered.

[@Meatbix75]

I discovered them via this song on a Terrorizer cover CD around the same time, so glad to be of service here!

[@manuelvicari5929]

underrated as pearls in the ocean i was just sixteen when this tunes make my ears jizzed...awesome band

[@kncn9929]

Mindrot created sorrow death metal...a fine distinction to note with their music. Sad they stopped making music, but man...the sorrow you can feel

[@sockstorm]

Haven't heard this since its release. Holds up better than I remembered. Three movements like Type O's September Sun.

[@jamesbarnes5808]

I recorded this....

[@Meatbix75]

Legend, you did a fantastic job with it. The drums are probably mixed a bit loud but it works (helped by the fact that the drumming is fantastic)

[@photography1077]

Hey do you know where I can still buy copies of this?

[@jamesbarnes5808]

Thanks. Evan is a killer drummer. Recording a band tuned down to A without doing different strings and instrument adjustments is crazy, but we did it. Contact Relaps Records on product acquiring. I have nothing to do with any product sales. Down loads? Good luck and thanks.. :) jim...

David Mir 2:42 AM 1 Edit Thanks. Evan is a killer drummer. Recording a band tuned down to A without doing different strings and instrument adjustments is crazy, but we did it. Thanks Jim.. :)

A friend of mine introduced me to Mindrot 21 years ago and i am a big fan since then. Amazing band.

[@aslanjudah7429]

Masterpiece!

That's cool. This is Matt fishers gf...we lost everything he had mindrot and eyes of fire. Somewhere out there someone acquired all of the band's rarities. I just hope they understood the treasures they were given and didn't just throw it all away...I hope someone cool ended up with our stuff. =(

[@mogshade66]

ROCKY Chi Hua Hua That's dreadful. Were you burgled?

[@jamesbarnes5808]

Bummer.. :(

[@aaronrashott3514]

I bought this CD when I was in high school. It has it's moments, nothing spectacular. California goth, 90s style. These guys would have played surfer music if that was the fad at the time....this was the time when amorphis, type o , tiamat, etc... were doing well. Whatever, I'll listen. . ...halfway through it gets listenable for about 30 seconds.

[@asdaat]

Amorphis after Tales from the t. l. turning into pussy. Tiamat too, Type O. was pussy always! Mindrot - Dawning is a MASTERPIECE! Nothing compare to this since then. Go and listen pussy metal.

[@aaronrashott3514]

Up until 7 minutes it's garbage. After 7 minutes, they show some real talent. Why make it an 11 minute song?

[@Meatbix75]

Well for a start its actually two songs... up to 4:20 is an extended instrumental intro (Dawning) and the rest is a separate song (anguish).

[@aaronrashott3514]

David Mir still, my opinion remains. Song structure could be better. I'm not saying they suck, just that they could do better. Happy times, bro.

[@aaronrashott3514]
