Rome
Confessions D'un Voleur D'ames
This second album is calmer and rather more personal than "Nera". These confessions are often dark and poetic, sometimes brutal, but most of all intimate. Again you will find traces of all kinds of genres of obscure music; ambient, neo-classical, dark wave, apocalyptic folk, martial industrial. ROME couldn't care less about boundaries of genres. However, the tone is less militant, the main themes being treachery and sacrifice, temperance and composure. With a distinctive slice of suicide pop fiddled into their exquisitely dark sound, ROME has established itself as one of the most lively and interesting experimental folk acts up and about. These confessions prove that ROME has become a force to be reckoned with.
