Finland’s Ikuinen Kaamos has announced that “Epilogue,” which was previously scheduled for a November release, is now shelved permanently due to a lack of funds at their label, Descent Productions.

To appease their disappointed fans, the band has released a free digital EP titled “Closure” consisting of three songs from the album. The EP is available for download at Ikuinen Kaamos’s MySpace page. The band also announced that they will re-record the remaining songs from “Epilogue” for their next album, which they will begin recording next year.

Ikuinen Kaamos’s sound can be described as a mix of progressive black metal and mid-paced doom metal. At times they sound like a blackened version of Daylight Dies, or even a doomier Opeth! In addition to the EP, the band’s entire debut album “The Forlorn” is currently available for streaming on the band’s MySpace page as well.

These guys have some real talent and it’s a shame that they’re getting screwed over by their label. Definitely check this stuff out if you haven’t heard them!
