Discography:
Rest Eternal / self-titled (album, 2010, CD Baby)
Formats: CD and Digital
The CD version is briefly mentioned [here].
Released sometime between 15 July and 6 September. This can be determined because of an unrelated comment [here], where one comment before Rest Eternal's mentions the date of 15 July, and 6 September as that's when a review was published.
Additionally distributed through iTunes, Divine Metal Distro and Amazon MP3 (see comment [here]). The same comment mentions this as their "debut", so presumably this is their first release?

The review, just in case it gets lost:
rest eternal-rest eternal demo cd {self-released}{reviewed by patrick}
this is proably one of the most original and impressive debuts to be released in a long time.the band describes their sound as "crypt metal" which is precisely what it is! a dark mix of somber,atmospheric doom,with a haunting black metal feel and presence throughout the songs.the main thing that will seperate rest eternal from most{if not all} the bands in the current scene is the band does not use or play any electric gutiars or synths to create the dark music that is rest eternal.instead relying more on piano,violin,acoustic and classical guitars among others.rest eternal is highly recomended to fans who enjoy dark,atmospheric blackend doom metal.
