Band Review: Abysnthe

Mike_Johnston
Thumbnail would be a cross between Ramstein and Marylin Manson but maybe that is too generic. I mean goth/metal is a somewhat "unique" genre and there isn't really a lot of super well known artists to make comparisons with.

I have to admit that i have had some room in my own collection for the occasional goth metal song. I love Du Hast and Dope Show. I'm not really into Marylin Manson at all but I like that song.

Out of the songs that Abysnthe has on their player I like H.A.T.E. the best because it has a killer percussion/bass line. That said there is something in all of their songs that creates at least some interest in me. Having a hot chick in the band (Alice Injection) doesn't hurt either. I have always had some vague interest in chicks in leather (we won't talk about that though...hehe).

    • Spelling is easy to screw up once you get overly dependent on spellcheck (or having an editor) hehe

      Anyway, I wasn't calling Rammstein a goth band. I was making an analogy of the sound of this band to a combination of Rammstein and Marilyn Manson which was just what popped into my head when I listened to the band.

      They list themselves as goth/metal/industrial so that is where the goth/metal reference came from...

      I will have to check your stuff out :-)

    • They are an okay group! But I wouldn't go around calling Rammstein a goth band! & genre has an "E" at the end! It's a weirdo French word! But anyway...Thanks for sharing! Looks like this group just started up judging by their number of plays! The goth & metal Genres are very different! & some try to combine them! Some have never heard the term Industrial before,so they don't know any better! Goth,Industrial & metal are huge genres of music that contain trillions of different bands! I do suggest checking out my project at www.myspace.com/nuclearlullabymusic

      No hot chicks in my project aside from special guests, but it's a multi genre project that focuses on lesser known styles of music! Hope you enjoy!
