akunderhile I love the way the album circles back upon itself. So many memorable riffs and hooks. Eric's voice is timeless. Favorite track: From Myself Depart.

BT In All Four Corners of the Park! Favorite track: The Endless Road Turns Dark.

Tom's Reviews The world lost an amazing musician when Eric Wagner passed away, and this album is but a testament to his songwriting/singing prowess. Then we have the riffs, the thunderous low end of the bass, and drums that sound like they were played using Thor's mighty Mjolnir!! Favorite track: Ravenswood.

about

Featuring vocalist Eric Wagner and bassist Ron Holzner, formerly of metal legends Trouble, THE SKULL creates classic Sabbathian doom with a psych-tinged metal vision. The respected group's sophomore full-length, 'The Endless Road Turns Dark', benefits greatly from the pedigree and experience of the band’s members and pushes authentic, old-school metal to heavier and more foreboding places, fueled by burly riffing, metallic groove and a crushing punch. Ethereal and wonderfully moody with a heart of heavy metal beating at its center, the record delivers definitive doom metal full of powerful builds and mesmerizing dynamic range. More than a mere throwback, 'The Endless Road Turns Dark' is the work of a band that respects their fans, understands their own history, and still has their ears open to the current doom metal landscape. A wicked exercise in heavy metal majesty, 'The Endless Road Turns Dark'plays like a natural extension of the musician's exemplary work during their 20-plus years with Trouble and cements The Skull as modern-day doom metal royalty.

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst

WAGNER - In The Lonely Light of Mourning
by ERIC WAGNER

supported by 63 fans who also own “The Endless Road Turns Dark”

Eric Wagner to me is a poet and a storyteller, his lyrics are thoughtful and profound and to take a quote about Chris Cornell “Nobody sings like him anymore”. He should never have died it was avoidable. Ask his bass player Ron Holzner? Too many rockers live recklessly and it has consequences for not just them and those in their families and friends but in the world wide family of rock and rollers. Live Long and Prosper Eric run to the light. rladkins140
