ICantHearVocalsInInstrumentals More like the end of fucking times. This is crushing and apocalyptic. Favorite track: Metempsychosis.

GelatsX Exceptionally evocative. Didn't expect to love this as much as I do.

Turd Ferguson Slow, fast, very powerful. 8/10. Favorite track: Epithumetikon.

Challenging Apathy Unless you're already a fan of ambient doom metal, The End of Words will take a little time to get used to. Once you do, though, it becomes an enjoyably bleak release full of tracks that, appropriately, encourage one to think of the deeper, more philosophical side of life. Favorite track: Metempsychosis.

“Best of Summer 2021”
- Music Waves (France)

"In the midst of ambient mediocrity and conformism, it is always pleasant to unearth a group such as Thumos which breaks with the standards, both formal and thematic, which mark out the doom genre to which it is tied."
- The Black Circle (France)

"It's competent and inventive, with just the right running time. Solemn, but not vulgar-tragic. Soaring but not lightweight. The End Of Words is a thing-in-itself, and a welcome addition to my post-metal collection."
- DPRP (Netherlands)

“Contemporary, melodic, and indisputably beautiful.”
- Issues Magazine

"Thumos is a very particular group, craftsman of a post doom stripped of all superfluous but nevertheless heavy and tragic. To discover imperatively!" 4/5
- Music Waves (France)

“US band Thumos is out with their album "The End of Words", and as the album title implies it is an instrumental production. Four tracks and 28 minutes of slow to mid-paced doom metal, with elegant core riffs, drums used actively to increase tension by way of tempo changes, and ongoing harmony overlays and soloing providing flow. Occasionally with textured overlays adding a post-metal touch to the proceedings. Perhaps not an album with a very wide appeal, but for those who feel like listening to a slightly different doom metal album this should be a rewarding listen.”
- Viking in the Wilderness (Norway)

“Listening “Epithumetikon” (the song) does produce pleasure, but not happiness. The simple, heavily distorted riff that opens the song and then becomes the foundation for variations, is steeped in a feeling of grief and abandonment. The earth heaves under the track’s plodding movement and crushing weight, and as it lumbers ahead the wailing melody grows increasingly anguished and agitated — and seems to scream. The intensity is uncomfortable, but the song nonetheless burrows under the skin like a sonic parasite, and it’s one that’s very hard to extract.”
- No Clean Singing
www.nocleansinging.com/2021/05/27/seen-and-heard-part-1-thumos-owl/#more-198179

"You could label Thumos any of the Doom and subgenre labels all you like but you would not be able to describe the huge lumbering sound that this band provides. Huge monolithic riffs that are not in any hurry as they will crush you invariably under their weight and intensity that grows and consumes you. Epithumetikon and Logistikon consume and make the most of the raw production to pierce the senses and inflict their themes of grief and pain . This US outfit with anonymous members does not get lost in the meanderings of doom, but progresses each section until complete and proceeds to get heavier as they go along . Metempsychosis is another highlight that appears simple in its heaviness yet progresses into much more. Highly recommended."
9/10
