This is the latest single by band ‘Nocturnal Tears’ with a 3:30 run time, and right off the bat, this is the kind of vibe I gravitate to in metal! The Gothic Rock/Metal vibes such as ‘H.I.M.’ and this band give a lot of the same vibes as them stylistically and instrumentally!
This song has such great use of those haunting keys in the background combined with melodic guitar rhythms and thrashing drum patterns! Combine all this with the captivating soft vocals of the lead singer, and you’ve got a perfect gothic atmosphere for a single!
You can hear the pain and anguish in the voice and the lyrics involved in the song that add that extra level of depth to this track! I also love how halfway through the track, they add in some more keyboard notes and ramp up the drums mixed in with some timely wolf howls in the background, and you’ve truly created the kind of track you can imagine playing in the forest at 3am stewing in your loneliness and suffering!
I feel this is a terrific single and can’t wait for the upcoming album!
