‘As We Die Alone’ is a typical title for a doom metal album. In this case it is the title of the fourth album of the Italian band Thunderstorm. With ‘As We Die Alone’ the band of Fabio “Thunder” Bellan releases a great doom metal album with influences of Black Sabbath and Candlemass. The atmosphere on ‘As We Die Alone’ is sad, just like a doom album is supposed to be. From mid tempo to slow tempo doom, this is your prototype headbangers album. The vocals are quite melancholic and the rhythm section is best described as a smooth velvet carpet of bass and drums, so all required doom elements are present. The riffs and dark atmosphere are similar to the music of Candlemass, however the sad vocals are not quite comparable with the powerful voice of Messiah Marcolin (Candlemass) but they do fit in with the music.
