When looking for
information on this Austrian band I happened to look at a photo of the band
members and one of them looks scaringly much like Raymond of Theatre Of
Tragedy. This might be a coincidence but the music of Autumn Clan does have a
few things in common with the unique industrial brand created by ToT during
the last couple of years. Autumn Clan is using samples rather sparse though
and it is mostly the gothic touch that ToT still has that is the common link
between the two bands. Enough said about this piece of meaningless
information. Autumn Clan formed in 1997 and have recorded two demos and played
more than 50 shows before being given the chance to release this debut album
through their home-based label Wait And Bleed Records who have a keen interest
in the rich gothic scene that flourishes today in the German speaking
countries of Europe. This album contains all the ingrediences for a successful
gothic atmosphere - emotional lyrics, strong passionate vocals and a feeling
of gloom that saturates every song. There are plenty of catchy rhythms, heavy
riffs and groovy melodies as well that should please many people, not just in
Austria but all around the world. Fans of newer Katatonia should be interested
in checking out this debut album from a very promising newcomer
band.
