The Prophecy is a new act
from the British isles. I don't know much about this band except for the fact
that they have recorded a demo called "Her Embrace My Ruin" prior to this
release which I haven't heard. This is my first encounter with the band so
please bare with me. These three young men are not afraid of broadening their
horizons and look past the limiting confounds of metal. This doesn't mean
that they are not playing metal though. "To End All Hope" is a mix of the
early death and doom metal scene in Great Britain. This album also shows the
band's first attempt of incorporating Persian scales in their music which
makes it sound different from the average run of the mill release. Shifting
from atmospheric keyboards and nature samples to violent death metal riffs
this album also displays a wide range of emotions while almost exclusively
focusing on the darker matters of the mind. The music is interesting and
although the growling is not exceptionally well done it is definitely good
enough. If you want to be taken back to the early days of My Dying Bride with
a slight touch of Opeth you might want to check out this British band. There
is even some violin played on the album by a girl called Karen
Macloud.
