While they indeed have gothic style lyrics, the label may be misleading to someone coming to this band expecting a goth sound (like me). The Fragrancy of Soil Unearthed is nice though.

"Gothic" is legit because during the period, Schwadorf & Konstanz are inspired by, there was a gothic literature, which is the main vehicle here, and "horror", as a name, is the invention of the 80's. Before that was "monster" or "supernatural". And there is no horror metal. That is contrived bullshit as viking metal is. Naming style by its lyrical themes maybe applies to stories but music is different and music journalists are incompetent twats. Do not fall into their imaginary world.

Yes, you're right. The problem is the association of the term with the Gothic subculture that rejects "metal". And because there are stereotypes in the bands of Gothic Metal that this band does not fit. But from the point of view of literature perhaps this band better represents the "Gothic Metal".

I do not participate in theirs hallucination. I call them "goth". As long as we agree that each person's perception is different I do not see a problem. I would rather name bands by their name and in case someone is ripping off of The Beatles I will refer to them as "The Beatles wave". Or more eloquently, "Beatlesque".

I'm new to the band, but The Unknown definitely ranked high on my top 10 list.

Really loving Witching Hour! Getting way more into it than Set Sail to Mystery.

Хорошо прослушал только первые 3 альбома, 4-й не очень хорошо, но про последний могу сказать то, что он ужасен... Соединил в себе все самое неудачное первых альбомов. Имхо, скучный, веселенький, ни капли не эпичный, и уж точно не готический. Весь шарм и шикарная мелодика пропала...

First half the new album Is really meh. Poor singing, nasty synthesizer in parts.2nd half of album sounds more like the good old stuff.

Don't mind the band, but I have to wonder how artists like this take themselves seriously during these photo shoots. I mean, I'm all about romanticism, but this is kind of ridiculous.
