An Italian band that carved out a melodic, atmospheric sound over decades.
If you're new to them, 'Heaven's a Lie' or 'Spellbound' give you the idea pretty quick. They're still at it with tracks like 'Layers of Time'.
They brought a distinct gothic texture to metal, anchored by Cristina Scabbia's vocals paired with Andrea Ferro's. Songs like 'Comalies' and 'Heaven's a Lie' defined that blend for a lot of listeners. It's a sound that's held up through albums like 'Black Anima' in 2019.
They started as Sleep of Right in 1994, releasing 'In a Reverie' in 1999. 'Comalies' in 2004 got them wider attention, and they've kept putting out records since, with some lineup shifts along the way. The core dual-vocal approach has stayed through it all.
