Original 2006 CD edition. If I had to compare Isole with one band it would have to be Solstice, the UK's greatest Doom band. Throne Of Void sounds a whole lot like the Solstice classic Lamentations, only crushingly heavy and with better vocals. I even have to give Isole a slight edge in songwriting overall. Guitarist/singer Daniel Bryntse sounds so much like former Solstice vocalist Simon Matravers it's uncanny, only Bryntse is better, with a clearer tone and a stronger voice overall. The sound, the riffs - everything here is first-rate, and the atmosphere is magisterial and grandly bleak. This is a big album, with big songs and a big sound, but it never slips into self-indulgence or wastes time with interludes or throwaway tracks.
