Rain Paint
Rain Paint was formed in 2002, as an outlet for some members of
FragileHollow (another Finnish goth band) to pursue a slightly
different direction.
Normally the phrase "Finnish goth" brings to mind any number of
similarly-minded bands
(
H.I.M.,
To/Die/For,
et al),
and while there are clearly
some similarities to such bands found on Rain Paint's
debut album
Nihil Nisi Mors,
there is also more doom and progressive elements,
with some similarities to bands such as recent
Katatonia
or perhaps
Anathema.
Recorded as a trio with several guest players,
Nihil
doesn't quite break the Finnish goth mold completely, but it's a
fine debut album with just enough individuality to avoid the
sounds-like-the-others tag.
