Our Take

Cellar Darling's latest offering, "This Is The Sound," is a delightful blend of folk, metal, and prog rock that will transport you to a mystical realm of enchantment and intrigue. The Swiss trio, consisting of former members of metal band Eluveitie, have truly found their groove on this album, showcasing a unique sound that is both haunting and ethereal.

From the opening track, "Avalanche," it is clear that Cellar Darling are not your average metal band. The delicate interplay between Anna Murphy's enchanting vocals, Ivo Henzi's intricate guitar work, and Merlin Sutter's thunderous drumming creates a mesmerising tapestry of sound that is as captivating as it is original.

Tracks like "Black Moon" and "Challenge" see the band delving into darker, more introspective territory, with haunting melodies and lyrics that will linger in your mind long after the music has stopped. The album's crowning jewel, however, is the epic "The Hermit," a sprawling opus that showcases the band's virtuosity and creativity in equal measure.

In a music industry that is often saturated with generic, cookie-cutter bands, Cellar Darling stand out as a breath of fresh air. "This Is The Sound" is a testament to their talent and creativity, and cements their place as one of the most exciting bands in the metal scene today. So sit back, relax, and let Cellar Darling take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that!
