If you
are one of those people who only listen to metal and nothing else you can stop
reading now. If you happen to have an open healthy mind just continue. Coven
XIII is a band from Massachusetts, USA, with a unique style of playing. The
fact that they can not be placed easily in a genre has been an obstacle in
their musical career so far. According to the band themselves record company
people have told them that they liked what they heard but then asked what kind
of music they´re playing. Inspired by love and passion, the new modern Wiccan
way of life and Shakespearean tragedies Coven XIII creates one of the
emotional albums of gothic ballads seen in a long time. Beautiful male vocals
from Teisen Russel and classical piano melodies from the magical fingers of
Amanda Adams is the main ingrediences in this love potion. The first book of
shadows from Coven XIII appropriately consists of 13 chapters and although
most of the songs are slow love ballads with a medieval or Shakespearean
atmosphere there are also some more experimental songs like "Red". Teisen's
vocals are really beautiful but I would wish for more activities from Amanda
and perhaps a little stronger and more powerful piano melodies because the
piano is one of the most beautiful instruments there is. A good album it is
but it feels as if there is something
missing.
