Discouraged Ones is the first full length from Katatonia that shows their alternative direction in its fullest. Far removed from the metallic hymns of Brave Murder Day or the trudging lifeless dirges of Dance of December Souls, Discouraged Ones is one of the first steps into radio friendly territory, and yet whilst this lacks the raw atmospheric intensity of their two previous albums Discouraged Ones is a highly emotional album and one that I strongly urge all readers to listen. Discouraged Ones is a very bleak album, from the pure anguish of Gone to the melancholy undertones of Instrumental, Discouraged Ones is an album that locks the listeners emotions in a vice grip and refuses to let go. From the hopeless, drawn out vocals, to the doomy, perhaps even lifeless guitar lines, Discouraged Ones carries on with what Katatonia are good at; creating sad, emotional music with a powerful atmosphere.

The band released two more albums, Discouraged Ones (1998) and Tonight's Decision (1999), before settling into a stable quintet lineup for all of 2000's. The band released four more albums with said lineup - Last Fair Deal Gone Down (2001), Viva Emptiness (2003), The Great Cold Distance (2006), and Night Is the New Day (2009), with the band slowly moving away from their metal sound while adding more progressive rock sounds to their work over time. After touring in support of the album, the trio recorded another EP, For Funerals to Come, which was released in early 1995. However, Le Huche left the band shortly after, and issues finding a replacement found the band break up for a year, while Renkse and Nystrom worked separately on their own projects. Of note, Renkse started up a new band

Discouraged Ones" is the third album to be issued by Swedish legends, Katatonia in the year of 1998. This release consists of eleven tracks and totals at just over forty-six minutes. With an all star line-up including none only thank Jonas Renkse and Blackheim, i held high expectations upon the release of this album, especially as it was the follow up to the simply astounding "Brave Murder Day".

Released April 27, 1998. Discouraged Ones Tracklist.

The album in question, Discouraged Ones, thus holds a distinct honor as the first Katatonia album to show audiences a heavy doom rock style that would, over time, become the band’s defining sound. One doesn’t even need to hear the album to suspect that Discouraged Ones will depart from its predecessors; the more colorful artwork and greater number of tracks are practically giveaways on their own. When I Break opens the album, however, that’s when we realize just how far the shift in direction has gone. Bizarre as it initially sounds, the new formula comes across as rather promising

In 1998, Katatonia released Discouraged Ones, an album that saw them step away from more traditional doom-laden atmospheres into an increasingly distinctive sonic world. Most of our evolution has occurred naturally, explains Renkse. We started as Paradise Lost fanboys, but now I think we have a different sound, something we have crafted over the years. With every new album we try to push the boundaries of songwriting and expand the concept of Katatonia without abandoning our foundation and roots. As the 21st century has progressed, Katatonia have become one of the most revered and cherished of all bands in the modern heavy music firmament.
