      Thats what caught me the most when I saw them live, not knowing them that much before. Those two ar so different and then so fitting well together, its amazing to see. And I took pictures of that show that captured that duality in a way that amazed me because I didnt plan it at all, it showed on camera in a very natural way.
      Great experience :)

Not to over the top on either end. Both vocals balanced perfectly together.

    Whenever people complain about screaming or growling vocals I get so annoyed. The human voice is an instrument, growling and screaming does to singing what distortion did to the guitar. Its just the next step in the progression. You can't have beautiful angelic chorus singing without guttural disturbing screaming as well.

      They held auditions for a new bassist this past year right before Urn was released, and I personally think the new bassist is even better. (Plus he doesn't beat his wife/family) I saw them about a month ago live with the new bassist. I was at the barricade in front of the new bassist and I just watched with my jaw dropped the entire show in complete awe of how amazing he is (and the whole band of course).

    Saw them in Kansas City like ten years ago, some of the band was under the weather and they didn't have the guttural vocals but they played some songs they dont normally get to since the lineup was all outa whack. Still one of the most memorable concerts I've seen. Cool dudes, too. Very gracious and genuine to the fans after the show.

      In case you ever wonder why; I had the pleasure to meet with the band and Benji explained to me that he holds the guitar that high because of the injury in his hand after a motorcycle accident. Anyway, these people are talented, amazing performers and so, so, so humble and friendly it is hard to believe.

We met the singer/ violinist at the end of the show and he was a very nice and humble dude who thanked us for coming to the show. Anyways they are touring for their latest album Urn. If you are lucky to live near a place where they are playing you should go.

    Yes. I love this.
    This is so fucking metal. There's growl/scream/etc. vocals, an uncommonly large number of strings on those guitars, and they play it like they wouldn't stop if the police came in to arrest them. Even a stage dive.
    They combined my love of metal, orchestral/folk instruments, and general proficient playing.
    I'm definitely looking this band up.

    Kings of our emptiness, the flagellants align
    Their mouths fill with questions, blessed they are by God's tokens
    Ware to walk the painted... the painted path
    Walking the painted path through our plague fields
    Ware to walk the painted path
    Through the plague fields
    Kings of this carousel, disfigured upon white horses
    With Goya's claws and Dore's wings
    Down golden locks to red crosses
    Crowned children screaming from funeral shrouds
    To rapid eye movement, heart-strings undone
    ... our beautiful filth dances... and plague flowers
    Why our wall to reason fall... only human
    Kings of our emptiness, the flagellants align
    Their mouths fill with ashes and death's tongue
    The dappled dying
    Flowering cold grey tombs
    With crumbling walls... I feel
    Our truth is laid bare
    ... And plague colours
    A masterpiece of pain
    The portrait of what we are...
