CASTLE PARTY „“X. CASTLE PARTY””

Music: Gothic
Website: www.castleparty.com

The summer… The Courtyard of castle in Bolkow (Polish town)… and the great stars of scene dark independent… Probably every Polish maniac of dark music heard about the Castle Party!

The disc indirectly comes from tenth jubilee festival Castle Party which was 26-27 August 2003 year. Unfortunately the material isn't concert, there are an ovation of the public and a dialogue among the artists and audience, this cause that the material decline in value however. But in total the material is not live! And in spite of all the selection of tracks is really excellent. Obviously the bands from the disc oscillate in gothic's climates (in dependence from a band) connected with rock, metal as well as electronic or music classic.

The darkness and the melancholy are reigning moods obviously, they fill the whole to borders of possibility, and they introduce the really depressive climate. But also here does not lack cosmic climates, psychedelic-industrial expressions or gothically rock-metal aggression and rapacity (although the aggression is in borders of gothic metal obviously).

The whole is listen very pleasantly. First of all it don't cause a boredom because the every song has many to offering… This is really the good compilation for fans of gothic music!

note: 9.0/10
