AGALLOCH „The Mantle”

What if i told you about a band that is from USA, but european metal oriented and use spanish samples in their music??
The most of all maybe wil say: “a copy of european _put name here_ band, without a doubt”
BUT!!! not in this case, Just beautiful, a piece of art!, this album it's on my cd player since a month ago and it'll be there for more months. Its an excellent album combining the best elements of doom, gothic, folk and black metal. An album that really enter in the deepest lands of your emotions and feelings. I can compare it to anathema-eternity, moonspell – irreligious or tiamat – a deeper kind of slumber in grandiloquence.
Acoustic relief for your ears, black metal vocals to release your anger, clear vocals to calm you down, electronic stuff to add a bit different ambient, and…. just a box of wonders and really great music!
Many influences in their music, but without a doubt, an achievement in metal. Fans of Ulver bergtatt-kveldssanger era, tiamat wildhoney -a deeper…or anathema eternity-silent enigma era don't lose this effort! you will be feel bad!

p.s.
For people that wonder what the hell are saying the characters on the end of “The Hawthorne Passage”
here it is:
Luis (boy's voice) – “I will die, and nobody will remember me”
Luis – “I will die, and nobody will remember me”
Luis – “Remember me”
Man – “Yes Luis, I will remember you, and i will go to see you to cemetary with a flower, and a dog, and in your funeral i will sing, in low voice, how beautiful is a burial”
