Walls

There are two bands with the name Walls: 1.) Featuring 3/4 of the final Cold Sweat lineup (and for that matter, one-half of Iron Lung), as well as the vocalist from Negative Step and Society Of Friends, Walls' self-titled LP serves as an expansion of their self-released 7" issued earlier this year. Indeed it is filled with a wider array of lurching rhythms, atonal riffs, and angry, stream-of-consciousness vocals, that, in the parlance of our times, "pick up where they left off".

Dissolving of Prodigy

Melancholic Doom-metal in the vein of My Dying Bride. Combines a lot of different elements like violins, flute, female vocals and more. Very atmospheric but also still brutal and heavy - something for Death/Doom fans. Their 2002 release sees them moving more in the direction of pagan/dark metal, and most of the doom/death references of their past sound are lost.
