Brides Of Lucifer
Brides Of Lucifer
Rhino Records
This is a metal band that does good metal covers, where all of the vox are a female choir backed by a full traditional metal band. “Painkiller,” “Walk,” “Burn in Hell” for some examples. Great heavy music and that full vocal sound just seems to work.

It says it’s Symphonic Progressive Death Metal… which it is, but it’s also got a very middle-eastern thing going on too. The prog part is also very big. Brutal parts, melodic stuff, vocal and music changes back and forth, keyboards, all sorts of cool stuff going on.
