Woods of Ypres
Woods of Ypres was founded in Windsor, Ontario, Canada in 2002 by David Gold, the band's sole constant member across a revolving cast of over twenty collaborators. Beginning as a melodic black metal act, Gold progressively steered the project toward gothic doom on a series of albums that tracked a deeply personal artistic evolution. Gold died in a car accident on December 21, 2011; Earache Records posthumously released the completed Woods 5: Grey Skies and Electric Light (2012), which won the Juno Award for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year in 2013, cementing Gold's legacy as a singular and tragic figure in Canadian heavy music.
