Dark Lay Still
Through Hell
Symphonic black metal with a decidedly Scandanavian sound. With 2 very critically acclaimed demos under their belts; 2004's "Joy In The Throes of Agony" and 2006's "Prelude, DARK LAY STILLS' debut release promises not to disappoint. "Throung Hell" thematically draws influences from Dante's Divine Comedy, from the lyrical content of each song to the classic art used in the dig-pak layout. Keyboards play a very large role in each composition, derriving an almost Baroque approach with odd keys and time signatures and melodies that contrast the crushing guitar lines, providing musical depth and maturity not typically found in extreme metal releases. Think DIMMU BORGIR, CRIMSON MOONLIGHT, and CRADLE OF FILTH.
