Cirith Ungol

Yes, yes, the voice is unbearable.
Yes, yes, the production is incredibly messed up.
Yes, yes, the solos are way too long.
...hey, but these guys really rock!
Closer to hell than so many others, they represent the true face of 80s Epic, the real one: far from rubber swords and similar bullshit, they tell the story of a world of monsters and big guys with great mastery; unjustly snubbed by practically 99% of every metalhead.

Cirith Ungol

Cirith Ungol are an American epic/doom heavy metal band formed in Ventura, California in 1971. Defined by Tim Baker’s unmistakable high, rasping vocals and Jerry Fogle’s acidic guitar work, they released a run of cult albums from 1981–1991 before disbanding. Reuniting in 2016, they returned to the studio with Forever Black (2020) and Dark Parade (2023), continuing their dark, fatalistic brand of metal often linked to Michael Moorcock’s Elric imagery and Michael Whelan’s cover art.
