Love History

Love History slots nicely next to fellow Czechs Forgotten Silence in the field of eclectic metal bands. Anasazi, the band's 2000 effort, strings together several different styles, featuring three distinct vocals styles (female soprano, a male operatic baritone, and harsh death growls) often fused together, along with well-placed keyboards, flamenco guitars, pianos, quiet interludes, and yet plenty of traditional metal riffing as well. Readers might think that this sort of hodge-podge of styles would make for a BNR favorite, and they would be right. Each successive listen to this band reveals new depths and sounds to explore. Also interesting is that their previous album, the ambitiously titled Gallileo, Figaro, Magnifico, is also a broad, diverse work, but yet sounds very little like Anasazi, drawing more from folk and gothic influences. Very much a band worth seeking out. Unfortunately they were reported as disbanding a year or so ago.
