Mourning Beloveth - ирландская дум/дэт-метал группа, образованная зимой 1992 года. Однако, первое демо было записано лишь в 1996 году и получило название "Debut". В записи принимали участие: Даррен Мор (Darren Moore) - вокал; Фрэнк Брэннан (Frank Brennan) - гитара; Брайан Дэлени (Brian Delaney) - бас-гитара; Тим Джонсон (Тim Johnson) - ударные. Демо было записано за восемь часов и состояло всего из двух песен, которые сильно отличаются от сегодняшнего творчества коллектива.

Позже бас-гитаристом группы стал Эдриан Балтер, принимавший участие в создание демо, а Брайан Делэни занял место гитариста. В таком составе в 1998 году было записано следующее демо, "Autumnal Fires". "Autumnal Fires" представляет собой сорокаминутный шедевр дум/дэт-метала, в котором тяжелые гитары переплетаются с классическим фортепиано, мощный гроул с чистым вокалом. В 1999 году группа совершила тур по Ирландии, продав более 1200 копий "Autumnal Fires".

В 2001 году Mourning Beloveth записывают свой дебютный студийный альбом под названием "Dust". Музыка стала ещё более тяжелой и меланхоличной и представляет собой смесь старых и новых песен группы. Активное использование как гроула, так и чистого вокала придает музыке особенную оригинальность и атмосферность. Также, положительное влияние оказал факт того, что состав группы на протяжении пяти лет остался неизменным.

В марте 2001 Mourning Beloveth провели концертный тур вместе с Cradle of Filth, приобретя немалую популярность у себя на родине.

Зимой 2001 года началась подготовка материала для нового альбома. С 20 апреля по 5 мая 2002 года на Academy Studios были записаны шесть песен длительностью свыше 65 минут. Наконец, в декабре на Aftermath Music был выпущен второй по счету альбом, "The Sullen Sulcus". В его поддержку Mourning Beloveth совершили свой первый тур по США.

В том же году ирландский лейбл Sentinel Records переиздал "Dust", изменив оформление альбома и добавив новую песню, не вошедшую в "The Sullen Sulcus", и "Forever Lost Emeralds" из демо "Autumnal Fires". Также, был выпущен сплит Mourning Beloveth / Lunar Gate на виниле с единственной композицией "Part 1" тиражом 500 копий.

С 7 по 21 февраля 2003 года в поддержку "The Sullen Sulcus" состоялся европейский тур под названием "The Doomination of Europe", где Mourning Beloveth выступили с такими всемирно известными дэт-дум коллективами, как Morgion и The Prophecy. Помимо родной Ирландии, группы дали концерты в Англии, Франции, Испании, Португалии, Бельгии, Нидерландах. В августе того же года был организован тур по Америке.

Третий альбом, названный "A Murderous Circus", был выпущен в марте 2005 года. Его лимитированное издание содержит на втором CD два бонусных и четыре концертных трека, записанных в Гронингене, Нидерланды. Группа сохранила своё уникальное звучание, а песни стали более простыми, длинными и мрачными.

Из-за переезда в Испанию в ноябре 2006 группу покинул бас-гитарист Эдриан Балтер. Его место занял Брендэн Роуч (Brendan Roche).

В октябре 2007 года Mourning Beloveth начали запись своего нового альбома, а 5 мая 2008 был официально выпущен четвертый студийный альбом под названием "A Desease for the Ages" на немецком лейбле Grau Records. В поддержку альбома группа выступила на ирландском D.O.D. Fest, Ferrum Rust Fest в Литве, в Бельгии и Греции. А в 2009 году был осуществлен долгожданный тур "Milestones of Misery" вместе с такими группами, как Longing for Dawn и Mournful Congregation.

31 декабря 2009 Брайан Делэни покинул Mourning Beloveth, и его сменил гитарист другой ирландской дэт-дум группы Decayor, Поурик Гэллегер (Pauric Gallagher).

В начале 2013 года посредством лейбла "Grau" группа издала свой пятый альбом "Formless", в поддержку которого отправилась в фестивальный тур по Европе.

ENG
Mourning Beloveth is an Irish death/doom metal band from Athy, Kildare. It was formed in 1992 by Darren Moore (vocals), Frank Brennan (guitars, clean vocals), Brian Delaney (bass and guitars) and Timmy Johnson (drums).

Though it was not until 1996 that they had recorded their first untitled demo Burden when the band finally came together. Burden was recorded in eight hours with Adrian Butler at the desk. This demo contains only two songs, and it is a raw indication of where Mourning Beloveth stands in the death/doom metal scene today. Adrian Butler joined later on bass, soon after Delaney had switched to guitar duties. This was the lineup that recorded the highly acclaimed Autumnal Fires demo in 1998. It received the "Demo of the Issue" honorific by Moondance Magazine.

Autumnal Fires is a 40 minute piece of music as the songs were intertwined with classical piano and it showed a huge progression in the writing and recording stakes. Mainly classed as death/doom this was the first step into achieving a sound of our own and it saw the integration of clean vocals. An extensive tour of Ireland followed culminating in a support slot to none other than Cathedral in May 1999. Over 1200 copies of Autumnal Fires ware sold throughout the underground and the MB name spread.

We decided to take a bold step, like so many of their contemporaries, and record in the famous Academy studios with Magz at the helm. What was produced after seven intense days of recording was "Dust", a sixty-six minute Doom masterpiece harking back to the days of the early Doom/Death scene. Dust is a mixture of old and new songs and this creates some of the heaviest and most melancholic music ever. The atmosphere and originality is helped by the greater usage of clean and growling vocals and the amazing production courtesy of Mags.The strength of the material is helped in no small way by the fact that the same line-up had been together for 5 years at the time of recording Dust.

Following the release of Dust, in March 2001, we received rave reviews in many established magazines including Terrorizer, Metal Hammer (Greece), Heavy Oder,Was, Metal Ireland, Doom-metal.com, Aardshock along with many others, mostly seeing the band as the saviours of the Doom/Death style. On the strength of this we played some high profile dates with none other Cradle of Filth that was huge exposure for us; we even managed to play our first gig in the UK, in Bradford.

Towards the end of the summer 2001 and into the long winter the writing process began for the new album. It was now February and we had eight songs written, six of which were finally chosen and recorded at Academy studios, again with Magz at the helm, from April 20 to May 5, 2002.

"The Sullen Sulcus" is a torturous and epic listen that requires the usual MB listening patience - with six songs over 65 minutes.

Epic and heavy guitars with a crushing vocal display by both Frank and Darren with an overall growth in melody and production , we had shaken off the MDB tag which plagued some reviews of Dust and move into what can simply be called Doom, the Mourning Beloveth way. It was released in December 2002 by Aftermath and received rave reviews across the board, establishing Mourning Beloveth as one of the underground doom/death acts of our time
Sentinel Records from Ireland (www.sentinelireland.com) then re-released Dust in February 2003 with new artwork, a new song from the TSS recording sessions and Forever Lost Emeralds (from the Autumnal Fires demo) all of which was remastered by Stuart Anstis.

We were hungry to establish ourselves in Europe as well as the live circuit and financed a two week European tour from February 7th to 21st. Entitled "The Doomination of Europe" MB were joined by Americans Morgion who had just reformed and the UK based The Prophecy and it hit Portugal and Spain, stopping off in England, France, Belgium and Holland along the way. The tour was a success, so much so that an American leg was planned for August of the same year and it also gave the underground European doom scene a kick in the arse., showing everyone that with a little organisation and determination anything can be done.

In the meantime we recorded a new song entitled Part 1 which was released by Sentinel as a split 7" with fellow dark metallers Lunar Gate from Ireland. it was recorded in Cosmic studios in Ballymun and gave us some new ideas for our next album and has made its mark as a live song too. It was limited to 500 copies.
The American tour happened in August that year and Tim couldn't make it so we enlisted the help of our long time friend Anto who decided to sit on a bus with us for four weeks and play some doom. The tour was initially with Morgion, Orodruin and The Prophecy but after one show Morgion pulled out due to an unfortunate car accident and so it was left to us to headline the four week tour. It was a long and arduous tour with vans breaking down, complete city shutdowns, PA's exploding, heads breaking down and the usual lack of money and sleep, add to that the sweltering heat and you have a nice picture of hell but again the people we met on the road, the great shows at the Junkyard, Stoner hands of Doom, Austin made up for this and we also got to see America. While we were there the split 7" was released and we received a copy while in the US. The first MB piece of vinyl!
When we returned we recharged the batteries for a month and then got down to writing some new material but this was interrupted by another offer of a tour with While Heaven Wept and Thee Plague of Gentlemen starting off at Doom Shall Rise where we played second so how could we refuse. Doom Shall Rise was an amazing experience; you cannot get much better than playing in front of 500 doom heads in a church. While at the DSR festival we met Tom from Grau records and he offered us a deal to release Mourning Beloveth albums but we had a weeklong tour ahead of us and so we concentrated on that. The DSR tour was also our first gigs in Germany as well as Gronigen and an appearance at Belgian Doom Night. This tour was the most successful for us so far. We have become a tight live unit and enjoy ourselves a lot more on stage now but it was also a success due to the fact that we actually came home with some money in our pockets.

Home again for May and we were finding it difficult to write the new material so we decided to set a date of October '04 for the recording of the new album. The songs were sounding a bit different than before and we decided on a new studio following weeks of discussion, finally choosing Studio E in Germany run by Markus Stock. The deadline gave us a goal and so we tried to remember where we left off in January and the new material slowly began to emerge. The contract we had spoken about with Grau on the DSR tour arrived and soon after we became a Grau band for four albums. Time to relax? No!

The writing of the new material was arduous and we had to re-write the songs several times. The music this time round is very bare, naked, almost stripped to its core and the album and lyrical content reflected this. It is still Mourning Beloveth, still two guitars, bass and drums but while more elemental it was also more experimental but only the recording sessions would really tell and so in November 2004 we arrived at Klangschmeide, Studio E in Germany to record what was later to become known as A Murderous Circus.
