Our Take

SCARLET STORIES' latest offering, "Necrologies," is like taking a wild ride on a haunted ghost train through a carnival of metal madness. The Dutch band masterfully weaves together elements of gothic metal, progressive rock, and symphonic splendor to create a sonic tapestry that is both haunting and exhilarating.

From the opening track, "Prologue: Scarlet Stories," the listener is immediately transported to a world where darkness and beauty collide in a mesmerizing dance. Vocalist Lisette van den Berg's ethereal voice soars over intricate guitar riffs and thunderous drums, creating a sense of urgency and mystery.

Tracks like "Voices," with its haunting melodies and hypnotic rhythms, showcase the band's ability to craft intricate and immersive soundscapes that draw the listener in and refuse to let go. The album's storytelling elements, from the chilling "Vingt Mille Lieues Sous Les Mers" to the epic "The Tell-Tale Heart," add a layer of depth and intrigue that sets SCARLET STORIES apart from their peers.

"Necrologies" is a journey into the unknown, a sonic exploration of life, death, and everything in between. With each track, SCARLET STORIES prove themselves to be masters of their craft, pushing boundaries and challenging the listener to dive deeper into the darkness. Don't miss out on this macabre masterpiece - it's a ride you won't soon forget.
