La Belle Musique!

"This is some of the mos beatiful, intriguing and ever-lasting modern music I have heard in my brief life. The emotions Elend makes you travel through are difficult to describe and worthy of experience. You will be frightened and surprised, cheered and depressed (In a poetic way). You will smile and (almost) cry. This has nothing to do with Metal. Do not expect to listen to heavy guitars and drums, all you will hear are violins, piano and synths. Alexander's screams ad up a brilliant aspect to the dark atmosphere surrounding the entire Officium Tenebrarum triology, and Eve Gabrielle's ethereal voice makes one of the most beatiful contrasts in music's history. (And she is as beatiful as her voice!) Buy the entire triology, you really won't regreat it."

Do you like Liszt the same as Emperor?

"This is the perfect fusion of Classical Music and Black Metal, this Album show how heavy can an Orquestra, and 2 sopranos,a male singer, and a male screamer be!It also show lots of virtuose, and theatrical performances from it's components, and the packing is one of the most beatiful I have ever seen (that's why it's so expensive(I Think!)), Lots of groups are now following Elend in this kind of musical adventure, but they'll hardly got close to Elend!(and check out the Sopranos' pictures, they rule!!)"
