We have had the Final Tragedy for a few months at TPRS.com and I have been
wondering what to write about their 3rd release entitled “Greed”. Female
fronted atmospheric metal would not do just description to this French band.
The usual comparisons to the Gathering, Tristania, Theatre Of Tragedy and
Nightwish really do not apply here. With each track clocking in at 5:00 minutes
or more, Delphine Cochand (vocals) and Jean-Luc Millot (guitars, bass) have
weaved a complex metal composition that requires multiple listens for true
appreciation.
”Speak The Words” is a
downright spooky track with its haunting music and slightly hollow vocal track.
At first, I thought that Delphine’s vocals were just buried in the mix, but with
subsequent listens it certainly seemed to have been done on purpose to add an
even more eerie ambience to the CD. Delphine’s lyrics of desperation,
hopelessness and lovelorn thoughts abound throughout the disc while Jean-Luc is
able to intertwine his musical prowess to create a thoroughly rewarding
listening experience.
”Greed” by Final Tragedy is available for $14 US Dollars through the band’s web
site listed below. Be prepared to listen to this disc at night, the perfect
time for music this mindfully deep and ambient.
