LACRIMOSA - Lichtjahre


This is the new release of the famous Swiss band, and once again a release that will not disappoint any of their fans. This CD we have in our hands is a selection of a double live CD, that was recorder during their Lichgestalt Tour, in various places such as Germany, China, Mexico, Russia and Poland. For those not familiar with the music, they are playing a mixture of Goth and Metal, with excellent vocals, bot male and female, and a dark and melancholic feeling. Horns and pianos are also used, besides the usual instruments, making the music even more diverse. The thing that impresses most, is the atmosphere that the band creates in their music, live or in studio, and the excellent way that they combine atmosphere, melodies and singing. The songs are catchy and groovy enough and stick into your mind in no time. So, if you are a fan of the band, no matter if you have been in the audience or not, this album is a perfect release, and surely a release worth bearing the name of the band.
9/10
