Background notes
Archive material and source history
Dysthymya formed in 1994 around Chris Colohan and Chad Saxton, with Colohan handling vocals and Saxton on guitar. They later added bassist Blake Fleming and drummer Joe Preston. Their debut album was called 'Dysthymic,' and they followed it with releases like 'Therapeutic Recreation' and 'Tentacles.'
Their music sits in depressive black metal territory, with songs like 'Fallen Predator' and 'Valley of Death' exploring themes of mental anguish and despair. The lyrics often deal with depression and similar subjects, which has drawn both listeners who connect with that rawness and some criticism for the heavy content.
Musically, they blend black metal with elements of doom and ambient sounds. They've also recorded a cover of Beherit's 'Sadomatic Rites.' The band's work tends to be atmospheric and melancholic, built around Colohan's vocal delivery and Saxton's guitar work.
