“Gloom” is the debut full-length album by the American band Macabre, released in 1989. The album has earned the status of one of the most
important and original releases of the death/grind scene. “Gloom” lasts only 25 minutes in its standard version and is characterized by extraordinary intensity and a raw sound, as well as very fast tempos, aggressive, thrash metal riffs, and “dirty,” punk-influenced vocals (the band was heavily inspired by the early hardcore scene). The lyrics describe real-life crimes and serial killers but often with a dose of dark specific sense of humor, which has become a trademark of Macabre’s work over the years.
