Formed between the UK and Spain, the band combines the brooding weight of Death/Doom with haunting, ethereal melodies, creating a sound that is as introspective as it is powerful.
Their debut album, “I Welcome Thee, Eternal Sleep,” marking the emergence of a new force within the Doom Metal scene. The band’s debut album explores themes of mortality, despair, depression and grief. It is a deeply Atmospheric record, where slow, crushing tempos intertwine with ethereal melodies to create an experience that lingers long after the music fades.
Through its intricate songwriting and evocative mood, Opia’s debut offers a glimpse into the bleakest aspects of the mind, capturing the melancholic beauty in the acceptance of the inevitable.
With “I Welcome Thee, Eternal Sleep,” Opia is set to carve a unique place for themselves within the Doom Metal landscape, offering a fresh yet timeless take on the genre that draws on their shared history within the Black Metal scene. Their blend of Gothic atmosphere and Heavy, sorrowful doom promises to leave a lasting mark, one that will resonate with listeners for years to come.
