Background information about 'Sorrow'

What a treasure this is! The 3rd And The Mortal delivers something absolutely spellbinding with "Sorrow" – a haunting masterpiece that showcases the Norwegian band at their most emotionally devastating. Originally released in 1994, this EP captures the essence of epic doom metal wrapped in ethereal beauty, with Kari Rueslåtten's mesmerizing vocals floating over crushing, melancholic soundscapes that hit you right in the soul.

The four tracks here are pure magic – from the Norwegian-sung opener "Grevinnens bønn" to the title track "Sorrow", each song builds these incredible atmospheric layers that make you feel like you're wandering through ancient Nordic forests under starless skies. Their cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" is absolutely brilliant, transforming the classic into something dark and otherworldly, while "Silently I Surrender" closes the EP with such devastating beauty it'll leave you breathless. This is essential listening for anyone who understands that the most beautiful music often comes from the darkest places.
