Siebenbürgen
Taking their name from an old European term for Transylvania,
Sweden's Siebenburgen was a middle-of-the-road black metal band,
middle of the road in that they play neither the primitive, brutal
style of, say, an early Mayhem, nor the overly melodic,
style of
Dimmu Borgir
and the like, but instead lie somewhere between the two extremes
(though they side probably a bit on the melodic end).
The early work (
Loreia) has a slight folk influence due to some
violin work, while the later material such as found on
Delictum
moves slightly away from black metal, inching toward goth
territory in places, largely due to increased female vocal work by
Kicki Hoijertz (a different singer provided some minimal background
vocals on the first two albums).
There are some nice ideas on the albums and there's nothing bad
about this band, but in general there's not a lot here
that hasn't been heard before either (though
a rather out-of-place cover of
W.A.S.P.'s "Fuck Like A Beast"
on
Delictum is mildly interesting).
They disbanded in 2009.
