Solstice is an epic doom metal band from Dewsbury, England, founded by
Rich Walker after the breaking up of his previous hardcore punk /
grindcore bands Sore Throat and Warfear. Together with Candlemass and
Solitude Aeturnus, Solstice is responsible for expanding upon epic doom
metal
The band released their debut album Lamentations on England's
Candlelight Records in 1994 and caught the attention of an underground
scene that was at that point swept up with the still new second wave of
black metal. Successive UK and European tours, with Count Raven and
Anathema respectively, firmly cemented the band as something of a cult
act across the continent.
