Mourning Beloveth began in winter 1992 but it wasn't until 1996 that we recorded our first, untitled, demo with Darren (vocals), Frank (guitar), Brian (bass), Tim (drums). Recorded in eight hours with Adrian Butler at the desk this demo contains two songs and is a raw indication of where Mourning Beloveth stands in the doom death scene today. Adrian joined on bass soon after and Brian switched to guitar. This was the line-up that recorded the highly acclaimed Autumnal Fires demo in 1998 (receiving "Demo of the issue" in 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 Doom/Death 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.

A Murderous Circus was released March 29, 2005 by Gau records.


The album turned into a double album and the recording sessions over three weeks were arduous but also very rewarding. In our mind we created an album while remaining in the confines of the death/doom scene has a lot of experimentation, all be it with 2 guitars, bass, drums and vocals. The album is bleak, desolate and melancholic and the lyrics dealing with the excesses of man show another side of our sound which we was not present before. The album came out to mixed reactions in the press and with fans alike but as time went by and people adjusted themselves to our "new" sound it quickly became a lot of peoples favourite MB release. We feel ourselves it was the point where we broke away from the comparisons that i guess every death/doom band must endure in their initial years but we have come out the other side of it stronger and more confident of what we can do.

Our first gig after the tour was a sold out show with Primordial in Whelans in Dublin and it was the first time an Irish underground gig had been so well attended. Our performance that night was one of our best ever ad the atmosphere on stage and from the crowd was amazing, we felt it was the beginning of a new era for Irish bands in Ireland it was that powerful and this has been borne out in the past couple of years.

So with the album out a few months we went on the Heathen Crusade tour with Primordial and Moonsorrow across Europe for 10 days in April 06. The usual shit of driving for hours, drinking, up the next day and another gig is a familiar one for us now but the shorter time frame meant on the last day we still had the energy to play. It was a brave move to head out with two "pagan" bands but it worked well for us and despite our 40 minute time slot we left our mark, some nights even receiving some slow hand claps for encores...the tour was a success. That followed in August 06 with appearances at Brutal Assault in Czech Republic where we played at midnight, after Fear Factory to a full house was a great experience for us and led us in to the next day and a drive to Germany to play Party San festival and although we played in the bright sunshine of 3pm we were made feel at home at the black/death festival where we stood out like a carbuncle on a baby....but the weekend served us well and opened the ears of a few more people to our brand of death/doom metal.. Party San was the final gig of our long time friend and bassist Adrian as he had moved to Spain a year previously and we felt we couldn't continue as a band with such a distance between us. It was the hardest decision we ever had to make as a band but one we felt was necessary for the band to continue at the pace we had grown accustomed to after the first album. Adrian was a big loss as without him we probably would have never recorded in Academy, probably never recorded a first demo and the rest of us would probably lying in the gutter today without him, so a cheers to Adrian but it was time to move on. We spent some time in the rehearsal room writing and rehearsing but the vibe was not the same.We had tried it for a year and even toured with this situation but when we got to writing new material for the album we found it very difficult as we are a band who come alive in the rehearsal room together and with a missing member it was becoming increasingly difficult.

Enter Brendan, a long time friend and a fan of the band on bass. We asked Brendan to do a few gigs with us in November, his first being Belgian Doom Night 06 with the late Reverend Bizarre. Following a few more shows Brendan was asked to join and our fifth limb had returned. The year finished with another triumphant gig in the Voodoo lounge in Dublin to almost 300 people and we even had some moshing and stage diving, a first for an MB gig.

The following year was spent rehearsing old songs with Bren and writing for the new album. Again writing is probably the best time to be in a band but is also the most arduous but by the end of September we had written the album and Brendan with his fresh ear was very excited and his excitement was infectious.

We again entered Studio E in Germany with Markus for two weeks this time in October 07 and recorded A Disease for the Ages, 5 songs over 56 minutes of torturous death/doom metal. We were really focused during the recording sessions and i think that intensity comes out in the songs Although recorded in the same studio as A Murderous Circus the sound is the polar opposite to it, it is the only conscious decision we made about the album before recording that the album must be heavy, a fuller sound. AMC had meandering and desolate guitars and almost revels in the human excesses, ADFTA fills your ears till they bleed, a slow descent into the gutter of desperation and nothingness, where we finally realise there is nothing to keep going for and the only was is down, a statement on the rottenness of mankind, the deconstruction and degradation of the human body and mind over time and excess.

The album was released through Grau on May 5th 2008 and initial reviews have been all positive, receiving several "Album of the Month" titles in well respected magazines.

In the meantime we had to cancel the European tour planned due to some personal matters and for a band who never cancelled a gig it was tough decision but one that had to be mad. The end of 2008 will see us play some festivals and hopefully early 2009 a full European tour.
