With this new album, exit the Spain with the singer 'Aylin Gimenez' and Hello France with 'Emmanuelle Zoldan' who officiates already for quite some time as a backing singer and who is a mezzo-soprano of eclectic lyrical training. And well, this time she takes the position in the 'Sirenia' group that released its 8th studio 'Dim Days Of Dolor' album in the end of 2016. It starts strong with a 'Goddess Of The Sea' very epic, filled with choirs and no disrespect to Aylin, we say that with Emmanuelle, 'Sirenia' does not lose to the Exchange. Overall, the titles are much more melodic and accessible than those of previous games and we note that growls are not systematic but are well led as for example with 'The 12th Hour' where the interweaving of the lyrical voice of Emmanuelle and the Growling gives a nice overall effect. In short, new compositions, a new singer, and even if 'Dim Days Of Dolor' brings no major new features, 'Sirenia' made a comeback in the small world of symphonic metal and delight certainly fans of this style... -Translated by Microsoft translator- | |
