Our Take

Once in a generation, a voice emerges that defies categorization and challenges the very limits of human capability. Diamanda Galas is that voice. Her latest album, "Diamanda Galas In Concert," is a tour de force of sonic experimentation and emotional intensity. From the moment she takes the stage, Galas captivates her audience with her otherworldly vocal range and fearless approach to performance.

Throughout the album, Galas unleashes a torrent of guttural screams, haunting whispers, and spine-tingling falsetto that leaves listeners on the edge of their seats. Each track is a rollercoaster of raw emotion and unbridled creativity, showcasing Galas' unparalleled ability to turn pain and suffering into beauty and catharsis.

The standout moments on "In Concert" include the mesmerizing rendition of "Wild Women with Steak-Knives," where Galas' vocals soar to dizzying heights, and the haunting "The Litanies of Satan," which showcases her mastery of the macabre and the sublime.

While Galas' music may not be for the faint of heart, those willing to delve into the depths of her artistry will be rewarded with a transformative and unforgettable listening experience.

With a four-octave vocal range that can shatter glass and souls alike, Galas is a force to be reckoned with in the world of experimental music.
