COLOSSEUM is a project with the aim to create the most bleak and funereal
atmospheres through music. Darkest hymns for a forlorn souls, diving into
the deepest abyss of mind. Drones of delirium and doom are taking their caustic
form and the conjurations for the debut album are being prepared. Dark waters
stir... The Gate of Adar has been opened and there's no turning back....
The idea of COLOSSEUM was born in 2006 when the mastermind of YEARNING started due to his frustration towards mostly everything to create extremely slow and heavy material. After composing five full-lenght cd's under the name of YEARNING he wanted to do something extremely dark and powerful.
Mixture of darkest kind of Funeral Doom Metal with the strong influences from both Dark Ambient and Orchestral Works melted together from the very first beginning. The idea was to mix together the rich and colourful chord progressions of classical music,the soundscapes of Ambient and total darkness and heaviness of extreme Doom Metal. Dauntless slowness and power of Funeral Doom genre mixed with influences from such acts as Dead Can Dance,Lustmord etc.
New songs began to take their form quite easily and finally the compositions were finalized with the lyrics wandering in the realms of suicidal depression, delirium, Sumerian/Lovecraftian myths and ghastly depths evoked by the dismal atmosphere of the music.
