MOURNFUL CONGREGATION: New Album Streaming In Advance Of Release

Mournful Congregation 'The Book Of Kings'

20 Buck Spin have posted a stream of The Book Of Kings — the new full-length album from Australian funeral doom overlords MOURNFUL CONGREGATION — in its entirety, just a week before release stateside next Tuesday, November 8th. The brilliant, extensive release is being praised as some of the band’s finest epic doom metal to date, preceded by two decades of material that has already earned MOURNFUL CONGREGATION placement in the highest ranks of the genre.

Bask in the massive, oppressive beautiful destruction of The Book Of Kings AT THIS LOCATION.

MOURNFUL CONGREGATION’s maiden voyage to North American shores is quickly approaching as the band prepare for their nine-show run down the West Coast late this month, which includes a headlining performance at December’s Rites Of Darkness III festival alongside Zemial, Midnight, Loss, Mortuary Drape, Sargeist, Urfaust, Tribulation, Stargazer, Anteus and dozens of incredible, international extreme metal entities.
