 Doom-metal.com: Reviews - Orodruin
Orodruin (that's Mount Doom, or Fire Mountain for all you non-Sindarin speakers) kick it old school, with an emphasis on Sabbathy riffs that pound holes in your skull like the proverbial million-pound shithammer.
Orodruin has all the riffage they need to make them one of America's - and the world's - premier trad.
This one shows where Orodruin is and where they've come from.

His power extends to Orodruin's source, so he can control its output to his needs.
Normal volcanos erupt sporadically; Sauron has tuned Orodruin to a chronic low-grade eruption that keeps the already fl-colored land of Mordor in a constant overcast.
Orodruin's furnace, the SammathNaur, created the OneRing, and Sauron invested in the Ring his own ability to withstand change.

 Digital Webbing Forums - The Historical Discovery of a New Element, Orodruinium
The smelting was done in a forge inside the Sammath Naur, the central vent of a volcanic peak in Mordor known as Orodruin, or colloquially "Mount Doom." Orodruin has a central peak height of 4500 feet and a morphology commonly interpreted as belonging to the stratovolcano or composite cone classification (Fonstad, 1991).
The abnormally high temperature reported for Orodruin is reminiscent of that found in Io's volcanoes, where temperatures of approximately 1800K were measured by the Galileo spacecraft in 1997 (McEwen, 2002).
Further field work at Orodruin is required to isolate Orodruinium from its parent lava and study its properties in a controlled environment.

And they've got this classic mournful vibe in their sound, which is absolutely necessary if you want to play classic Doom.
Like their fathers, ORODRUIN not only playing as slow as a snail, although slow and mid-tempo themes are domianting this album, but there's still enough space for a few up-tempo parts and heavy crushing grooves.
ORODRUIN don't care about southern or sludge trends, they are simply worshippin' the true and original heavy fathers with every single breath and note and so it's a must-have for every die-hard Doom fan.

As was the case with Mourning Beloveth, I was scheduled to do an in-person interview with Orodruin, but due to a mishap on the road, the show in Lawrence, Kansas was not to be.
John : Orodruin began as early as 1998 when I decided to start something truly doom in vein to Saint Vitus, Witchfinder General, Trouble, and Candlemass.
Orodruin means the mountain of doom, and I dug that so I kept it in my head in case I ever wanted to start a band.

Orodruin the only known active vulcano left in Mordor was lying upon the Plateau of Gorgoroth 50 Miles South of Isenmouthe and 30 Miles West of Barad-Dûr.
Its base were 7000 feet wide and from its feet to its tumbled shoulders it reached 3000 feet.
The road from Barad-Dûr went up along a causeway at the Eastside and turned 3/4 around the mountain at the base, took a turn back West and then East again before it reached the upper cone where it ran the last 1/4 to a full circle and reached the intrance to the firechambers.

 Hellride Music
Rochester, NY's Orodruin is quickly making a name for itself among doom fans the world over...their demo CD-R is truly a magnificient piece of traditional doom work.
Orodruin's combination of masterful misery riffs, killer breakdowns and prolific lyrics make this band one to watch and should be on any doom aficionados checklist.
That would mean the earth would stand still, animals would stand upright and humans would develop new orifices that would spurt feces from their eye brows.

 firegoat.com : Reviews (Orodruin)
There is lots of space for improvement left here - if Orodruin manage to get that riff thing sorted out...arrange the said items in a sensible way, invent (or borrow) some additional ones, give it all some heads, tails and context, their music could sound much better...
Orodruin gambled it all on the one card and it didn't come out too well.
However, there seems to be a slight layer of distortion (or is it poor recording?) placed over the music as a whole, hiding the bright and promising stars in it even deeper into the gray monotonous quasi - gloom of the product as a whole.

Orodruin played a great set and the doom dancing was so much by John his glasses came off and later during our set they found there way onto Franks head….
On the way we avoided something on the road but Orodruin drove over it and we got a call to stop and check the van, this is all we fucking need but the van is ok and we push on to San Francisco.
Orodruin played a great gig, as did TP and both even played some extra stuff and the crowd were very appreciative.

Orodruin got things started off in killer fashion, laying down about six songs of pounding doom that channeled the almighty power of Sabbath, Vitus, Candlemass and Cathedral to name a few.
After Orodruin, my best buds and I spent a little time at the merch booth, bought some stuff and talked a little bit with the Orodruin guys.

 Metal Invader - The True Metal Experience
Orodruin is ecstatic to have this opportunity to tour Europe.
One think I love in ORODRUIN is the fact that everything about the band seems to be made carefully and cleverly.
First and foremost the music, but also I really appreciated the cover art of both “Epicurean Mass” and the 12” split, the choice of the band name, and in general everything seems to be well thought after.

 Encyclopedia of Arda: Orodruin
The fire-mountain in the northern parts of Mordor, in which Sauron forged the One Ring during the Second Age, and into which the same Ring fell thousands of years later to bring about the Dark Lord's downfall.
So powerful was the sorcery used in the making of the Ring that it could not be unmade, except by casting it back into the same fire that had forged it.
(the battle had taken place at the gates of Barad-dûr, and Orodruin was therefore near at hand), but Isildur refused, and claimed the Ring for himself.

The battles of Dagorlad, Orodruin, Fornost, Azanulbizar and Morannon
It appears that this battle (and later, during the seven-years siege of Barad-dûr, and the battle of Orodruin at the end of it, when Sauron comes out and fights with the kings) is a natural for concentrating on the heroic powers of individual champions and their magic weapons.
For example: if there are a total of 50 combat resolutions, then a hit on an Eagle this turn reduces this from now on to 49 combats where the West gets +1.

The first thing I noticed on the biography for Orodruin is that their influences include Trouble, St. Vitus, Candlemass, and Cathedral- well now bring on those Sabbath riffs and doom brother.
Apparently Orodruin started out just about two years ago with guitarist, organist John Gallo and his former bandmates vocalist and bassist Mike Puleo and guitarist Nick Tydelski.
Soon they were joined by drummer Mike Wake and entered to studio to record their debut full length, Epicurean Mass.

The drums anchor it all solidly and it's finished off with a large helping of mournful vocals that very effectively carry the melancholy that is the primary emotion of this song while leaving no doubt that anger and hate are the emotional right and left hand men.
Orodruin's two offerings continue to bolster their reputation as one of the best newcomers in the Doom Metal genre.
The sound here is classic old school doom with a great sense of dynamics.

It's important to note that F. Soderlund, of Puissance, created the 'Outro' and also the intermezzo on 'Drink from the dark forest stream'.
Put together very well, and has some very effective songs, it will be interesting to see how Orodruin will progress.
