MY DYING BRIDE / Trinity (1995)

England's other favourite sons of Doom collected together some of their early E.P.s for the Trinity compilation. Hearing them in order highlights the changes the band's sound went through, from the Death Metal (with violins) grind to the more recognisable mournful Doom (still with violins) sound they're better known for.
It's not a complete collection, I Am the Bloody Earth's B-Side Transcending (Into the Exquisite) is missing, but that's probably for the best. What is included, however, is an essential collection of previously hard to find work for any MDB fans that may have missed out before.

Songs of Note: Symphonaire Infernus Et Spera Empyrium; I am the Bloody Earth

Note: The US release got less religiously offensive cover art.
