I always wondered what Ed Warby (one of my favourite musicians
) could be doing now. I got my answered yesterday.
The 11th Hour
"
The 11th Hour is a new Dutch/Swedish Doom Metal band from the minds of multi-instrumentalist Ed Warby (Gorefest, Hail Of Bullets, Ayreon) and musical centipede Rogga Johansson (Edge Of Sanity, Demiurg, Paganizer, Ribspreader). Making a full-fledged Doom Metal album is a-wish- come true for Ed, as it gives him a perfect opportunity to Worship unconditionally at the “Altar of the Riff”. Although both Ed and Rogga are mostly known for their considerable Death Metal prowess and have previously worked together in the Death Metal juggernaut Demiurg, both love Doom Metal in all its guises and Embraced this opportunity with great enthusiasm.
For Ed this marks a double first: not only did he write all the song material, he also plays every single instrument on the album, as well as handling half the vocal duties. Rogga contributes the other half in his renowned guttural style. The haunting lyrics are a combined effort of both Ed and Rogga and eschew
the expected gothic fantasy-style in favor of a harshly realistic approach to the Morbid subject matter..." Their debut album is called "Burden of Grief".
