This album has had a long history, recorded in 2006,
becoming available in 2008, and has only just been brought
to my attention thanks to their new management company,
Alkemist Fanatix, who they joined in September this year.
There must be loads of bands like them who exist ‘under
the radar’, waiting for the right promotion to make their
music widely known. They are fronted by the delectable Haydee,
who not only has a rich, sexy voice, but also writes excellent
atmospheric lyrics. ****
This is an album of superb symphonic gothic pop metal.
Standouts include the ultra groovy ‘Silent Night’, the glorious
‘Blood on the Wall’, full of excellent keys and soaring
vocals, and the lovely ballad ‘Memories’. ‘Sweet Madness’
is a suitably atmospheric tale about a creepy old house,
which really shows their prog diversity. ****
They are currently recording a new album, and if they
pack it with songs like ‘Silent Night’ then they deserve
to have an instant hit this time.
