Satyrian

Dutch seven-piece gothic metal project; debut album 'Eternitas' released on Frontiers (reviewed on DeBaser).

Debut album 'Eternitas' (Frontiers) reviewed in 2007. Review mentions symphonic embellishments by Jan Yrlund and vocal contributions from Judith Stüber, Kemi Vita (of The Dreamside) and Roman Schönsee (of Pyogenesis). The review describes the music as light/simplistic heavy metal with electronic and dance-pop touches and heavily criticized the album's originality and execution.

A strongly negative review of Satyrian's debut Eternitas (Frontiers) calls the music light, simplistic heavy metal with artificial 'dark' flavor and overused symphonic/electronic touches. Three vocalists are employed; Kemi Vita's performance on "This dream" is highlighted as the only genuinely strong moment. Overall rating in the review: 1/5.

For:Listeners of gothic metal, symphonic metal and gothic-rock; readers of DeBaser interested in Frontiers releases.
