The debut release by this Australian band created waves of attention due to their unique sound of operatic, symphonic metal. The new album, "Elegant...and dying" is even more unconventional and one of the most artistic releases to come out this year for the genre.
The romantic and extemely emotional arrangements are further enchanced by Rowan London’s unique mournful yet poetic singing style. The songs are presented with numerous angles and at times coming out as soundtrack scores, at others as classical compositions or even as subtle weeping lullabies that make the music as dynamic as it is dark and passionate!
Unlike any other outfit out there, Virgin Black continue their unique trademarked sound and once again manage to dazzle by giving as a 75 minute album that is rich, compelling and draws the listener into the darkest of maddened depths!
