Comment:

Relatively new band which will rapidly became a major name. The originality of the band comes from the captivating female vocal which are incantatory and haunting. The titles are dinstinctive and inspired which brings an interesting variety to the album. The main musical genre is traditional doom, but there is also psychedelic rock made in 70's in the vein of Coven and Black Widow (it especially concerns the mesmerizing and heavy guitars)  influences and also a hint of black metal . But the general atmosphere is retro, gloomy, occult et cryptic.

A fetid and bubonic soup prepared in the midle of a misty forgotten necropolis by a devilishly seductive witch who won't fail to enchant you!
