XtreemMusic: Somber Serenity "Singular" SOMBER SERENITY is a new German band that plays Doom Metal mixed with some Black Metal parts, a genre that some people call Dark Metal. Whatever you want to call the music they play, it's certainly quite variable, so in 'Singular' you will find from typical Doom/Death songs a la ANATHEMA or even MORGION with lots of acoustic parts, to cold Norwegian Black Metal riffs like in the second and the fourth song. You can even find a song called 'Goddess of Light' in which they include a part in the very vein of AT THE GATES. Maybe they have mixed lots of different ideas in the same album you can think, but it's nevertheless a good beginning. They just have to find their own sound to make something really interesting in the so competitive world of music. They have released some demos and they have participated in some compilations, having played gigs with big bands such as MY DYING BRIDE and THE GATHERING. The presentation of the album is quite professional, and so is the production as well, so give a chance to SOMBER SERENITY if you like emotional and dark Doom Metal mixed with other influences. |
