This was the second release from Dark Sanctuary on their
native French label Ancestral Craft before joining the legions on
Avantgarde's sublabel Wounded Love. The band was originally formed as a solo
project in early 1996 by Arkdae but soon it evolved into a "real" band,
including the incorporation of a violin player in 1998. On "Royaume
Mélancolique" they bring us more than an hour of sad symphonies on a journey
through the darkest and most melancholic realms of this world. Together with
bands like Dargaard and Avrigus I think Dark Sanctuary is among the leading
acts in the world when it comes to creating dark atmospheric music. This is
not a metal album as I'm sure you have come to understand by now. Instead it
features beautiful female soprano vocals (very strong indeed), keyboard
orchestration, piano and accoustic guitars. If you want to travel through the
darkest recesses and crevices of the human soul this album is the perfect
companion.
