Description: In terms of feeling and sound, Sadness lives up to their moniker. They blend black metal with shoegaze quite effectively, and the album I Want to Be There is the project's most accomplished work to date. It frequently crosses over into post-rock territory, and its brand of sadness is almost mesmeric.
