REVIEW: Horror Vacui - In Darkness You Will Feel Alright



The Italian band Horror Vacui´s debut album "In Darkness You Will Feel Alright" was released in the end of last year (2012). The record introduced by Krzysztof Komeda´s "Main Title", a soundtrack from Roman Polanski´s movie Rosemary´s Baby. The singing woman ends abruptly with the track "Black Rivers" and thereafter Horror Vacui plays intensive with a higher tempo til the end.

The members of Horror Vacui have a past in the punk rock scene, and you can hear that. In an interview with the band, they told that they normally listen to Gothic Rock so it was time to play what they listen to. That´s how Horror Vacui was founded.

"In Darkness You Will Feel Alright" is a record where the music is based on very traditional Gothic Rock. A sound from the 80´s or early 90´s. The songs have a very high standard through all record, their sound is kind of noisy, punk sound, I love it!

I can highly recommend this album. It is a prof that there still are bands that turns back to the roots of darkwave / Gothic Rock.



Buy this album for 5.5 Euro over Bandcamp

REVIEW: Vanity - Occult You

First time I heard the band Vanity was for about one year ago and I played them on Gothtune! (podcast #4 (Sleeping Tears) and #11 (Under Black Ice). But it took nearly a year before I listen through all their cd Occult You.

The record was recorded under total isolation between december 2011 to februari 2012 och the release day was not until begining of 2013. The members lives near Tuscany in Italy, but comes from different countries and cultures. The lyrics is based on a never released book by the singer with the name "Occult You".

When I got the chance to listen to all the record and build me a full picture, I understood how damn good they are. It is hard to point a finger and tell where I should categorizing there music. There are a bit of everything and everything sounds fantastic. I hear rots of darkwave, but other kinds of rock. If I should make a choice, I can tell you that I hear some metaphors and sounds that reminds me of Anathema´s record Alternative 4, which I had on repeat for a long time in the end of the 90´s. However, it is wrong by me to compare them with Anathema 100% because you find other influence as well.

What can I say, I think this can be one of my favorite records of 2013.

En tanke med Carnival Star är att bjuda in gästmusiker för var låt. Bakgrundsång och gästgitarist i dessa två låtar finner vi Liquid Grey, som är aktuell med en ny skiva.
