A song based on Emily Brontë's poetry is on the first album of the Ukrainian band, Sorrowful Land:
Where The Sullen Waters Flow takes a darker and more intimate route, as Molodtsov opts for whispered vocals that steadily grow into a rasping speech, and eventually climb to a roared peak. The atmosphere hangs thick around this track and despite running for more than nine-and-a-half minutes, there are enough twists and changes of pace to keep you fully invested. Again though, certain elements begin to feel rehashed, particularly guitar lines, when The Night Is Darkening Around Me rolls around. Even the poetry of Emily Brontë from whence this song takes its inspiration cannot wholly lift this one out of the quagmire or repetition. (Jack Terry)

    It's actually third full-length album, not the first one :)
