Braindance
Braindance was once described by someone (possibly themselves) as
"cinematic-neuromantic progressive new age gothic metal fusion",
quite a lofty description.
More recently they have promoted themselves as "progressive
darkwave", a term which, after one listen to their latest album
Redemption, fits surprisingly well.
Braindance is a progressive band, but they don't sound a lot like
other progressive bands, and there is a darkness to their style
that is quite appealing.
Sabastian Elliot's baritone vocals are the main selling point, with
his unique and forceful style, but Vora Vor's impressive guitar work
also deserves accolades (the band is now officially a duo, though
session players, including past members, helped on the recording).
This band is truly walking their own path, as they really don't
sound like anyone else at all.
Excellent stuff.
