Another great Norwegian band has seen daylight
(or perhaps the dark of night). The Sins Of Thy Beloved is a rather new band
following in the footsteps of fellow countrymen Theatre Of Tragedy but their
music is slightly different. The music of TSOTB is perhaps a little heavier,
thicker and faster than Theatre's. This album is filled with a very emotional
mix of death and doom metal. Heavy guitars and drums are accompanied by great
violin playing by Pete Johansen, who normally plays Irish folk music in his
own band. The violin is very important to create an atmosphere that really
enhances their songs. Another important part of the band's music is the
beautiful piano, which Theatre Of Tragedy unfortunately seem to have left
behind them. The vocals are very emotional and consists of dark male growling
as well as beautiful soft female soprano. The only thing annoying with their
music is that the band deliberately only publish a few lines of the lyrics
from each song since they believe you will listen more closely to the music if
you don't already have the whole lyrics in front of you. The only problem is
that the growling parts are almost impossible to hear... The album was
recorded at Sound Suite Studio, produced by the band together with Terje
Refsnes. This is one of the best metal albums of the late 90s. If you like
Theatre Of Tragedy you will probably also love this
one!
