Yorkshires heaviest militant trio of Doom and Heavy Metal Madness. The Lamp Of Thoth are the perfect antidote to the sickly commercial dross being peddled in the name of doom. Horrifying, creepy, and seriously unbalanced, Dr. Simon Von Strange and his assistants, Igor Reaper and Baroness Pentangle will raise the spirits of dread eldritch horrors yet again!
Music has a habit of throwing up coincidences and Yellowgroove are no exception. Formed within a melting pot of musical influences, Simon a slight disillusioned folk troubadour, who had a bag full of songs and a thousand more in his head, cut his songsmith teeth on the folkier edges of Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull. Whilst, old friends Mark and Ben take guitar tones and stylings from the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, Cream, Pink Floyd and more. When Jack joined he brought the beats fashioned on his idols Chad Smith, John Bonham and Ginger Baker.

Frederick Delius (1862 – 1934) was an English composer whose musical style is characterized by chromaticism, although it is still largely tonal with luscious harmonies - mainly slow moving, with the frequent use of leitmotifs and constantly evolving melody. Orchestral excerpts from his operas, for example La Calinda from Koanga — which originated in the 1880's Florida Suite — and The Walk to the Paradise Garden from A Village Romeo and Juliet, are also reasonably often played and recorded, as are orchestral works such as On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring.
