Not sure where these guys come from (their URL doesn't work), but they seem
poised to make a name for themselves in the art-goth tangent of modern metal
extremism. The use of contrabass is highly reminiscent of My Dying Bride's dark
classicism, while the fusion of isolated ambient soundscapes with true blue
metal chord progressions satisfies both the armchair headbanger and pit fiend in
all of us. "Anastasia" even finds the band delving into folk melodies without
bastardizing the integrity of the music.
While a bit short at seven songs and just over 20 minutes, Cold Tale
Eternal will whet the appetite until the boys can whip up a full course
offering.
