Wreck of the Hesperus

Wreck of the Hesperus are a doom metal band from Dublin, Ireland. The band started playing together in January 2004 and they recorded their first demo, a four-track effort entitled Terminal Dirge in June 2004. The follow up Eulogy for the Sewer Dwellers was released in 2005. The band's style of music is a particularly slow and heavy form of funeral doom, with guttural vocals and stoner doom influenced guitar riffs. Unusually for doom metal, the band's music frequently highlights Ray Keenaghan's drumming skills
