Mirthless is composing new songs into suicidal path.

A Dirge For Your Suicide is the best analog sound on recording in the same professional studio. Our past releases was rough sound however, the mysticism is always the same way.

The main lyrical themes were personal spirituality, mysticism, suicide and depression. Our formula is desolation into doom voyage. Maniacs can listen our album debut into bleak way…

Mirthless is a journey into the human subconscious with intense emotions.

Not live concerts but, Mirthless will play in live to spread rough emotions.

Mirthless were spread into underworld since demo debut by my label Doommaniac Productions. However some maniacs into doom metal are real extreme. Quality, not Quantity!!!

I am only dedicated to Mirthless but, our guitarist has his project called Hell Torment.

Our path is bleak into obscure aura!!!

Our influences are human emotions through music. I admire old classic doom bands and new comrades in the vein of Mournful Congregation, Worship, Ataraxie, Esoteric and more…

I am not into occultism but, I respect some point of view into rituals, astrology and secrets of nature.

I am totally dedicated to spiritual knowledge, poetry and secrets of our Mother Nature…

Mirthless/A Dirge For Your Suicide/Dunkelheit Produktionen/2013 CD Review

  Mirthless  are  a  band  from  Peru  that  plays  a  very  heavy  and  dark  form  of  funeral  doom  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2013  album  "A  Dirge  For  Your  Suicide"  which  was  released  by  Dunkelheit  Producktionen.

\  Drums  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  playing  with  only  a  small  amount  of  fast  drumming  and blast  beats  being  present  on  this  recording,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  funeral  doom  with  traditional  death/doom  metal  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  with  some  dark  sounding  melodies  being  thrown  into  the  riffing  as  well  as  a  brief  use  of  soft  and  clean  playing,  while  the  lead  guitars w hen t hey  are  utilized  are  very  dark  and  melodic  sounding  doom  doom  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals  range  from  deep  death/doom  metal  growls,  grim  sounding  screams  which  brings  a  black  metal  feeling  to  the  album  and  spoken  word  parts,  while  the  lyrics  cover  Occultism,  Darkness  and  Suicide  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy,  dark  and  professional  sound  with  the  songs  being  long  and  epic  in  length.

  In  my  opinion  Mirthless  are  a  very  great  sounding  funeral  doom  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  album.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Pantheon  Of  Disgraces"  and  "A  Dirge  For  Your  Suicide".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
