Long Winters' Stare
Long Winter's Stare describe their sound as
"symphonic experimental dark metal", and that's as good a
phrase as any in attempting to describe this peculiar band.
Before The Dawn ... features a kind of gothic doom, with
vocals ranging from death growls to tortured shrieks to
spoken verse, and more keyboards (predominantly piano) than
most bands in this arena, lending an ethereal and classical
air to the proceedings.
It's bleak, it's warped (witness the nearly unrecognizable
cover of "Carry On My Wayward Son" by Kansas (!)), and it's
pretty unique.
Often this kind of music is too depressing for its own good,
but while this album is as sorrowful as any, it's also
very interesting listening.
The band announced its breakup soon after the release of
The Tears Of Odin's Fallen.
