Not angry at all. The guy who does the slightly-operatic vox on (I think) the
second track on LSC's "Exploring the Psychedelic" is their singer. The music
is extremely melodic, though extremely "grungy" (no, not like that...) and
epic, powerful doom-metal. Very much along the lines of Candlemass, if you've
ever heard them. If you like later Amorphis, you should def. check 'em out.
I'll have to give "Swallow" another listen...rec'd the album along with many
others, so...
