The Gates of Slumber

The Gates of Slumber

The Gates Of Slumber is a doom metal band from Indianopolis, Indiana USA. They play old school style of doom and metal in the traditions of Saint Vitus, Pentagram, Rainbow, Cirith Ungol, Manilla Road and the likes. (1998 to the Present)

Band history

Jason McCash brought his low-end bass tone to the band in 2001. A handful of drummers have worked with the due, including Chuck Brown, Jamie Walters and Chris "The Fist" Gordon.

The Gates Of Slumber's second album, Suffer No Guilt (I Hate), is a mission statement for those who recognize the awesome might of the truth within heavy music. With artwork from famed painter Ken Kelly (Rainbow, Manowar, Kiss), the album has built a strong following in the underground as impressive as the four "K" review it received in Kerrang!.
