"We forget, sometimes, that the best ‘doom’ should convey emotion – be it sadness or slow burning rage – rather than be an excuse to simply tune your guitar down and play through the loudest amp possible. Usnea’s ability to inject a real feeling of sadness into their tunes without sacrificing any heaviness is to be envied in a sea of faceless sludge bands right now."

"Beneath Oblivion is an experimental sludgy, funeral doom band from Cincinnati, OH that started in 2003. Records are released through the Mylene Sheath. Tours DIY all over.. Has new music on the horizon, to be released on vinyl and in digital formats."
