Search - Beyond the Black :: Heart Of The Hurricane

Beyond The Black - energetic, straight forward, uncompromising, symphonic metal. Where others still lose themselves in colorful descriptions, this band has already set its next course and is heading with full force right into the "Heart Of The Hurricane". The title of the third album is metaphorically where Beyond The Black feel they are ? and 2018 is going to be the year in which this charismatic outfit based around Jennifer Haben explores what they describe as ?the stylistic limitations of extremes: where on the one hand the screws of hardness are tightened again by several turns; and on the other hand a previously unprecedented catchiness dominates the pieces?. Beyond The Black continue with their unerring sense of gripping melodies, mixed up with pulverizing blast beats, rousing neck breaker riffs, epic keyboard passages, and elaborately arranged strings and choral settings. From the atmospheric gloomy heaviness ("Through The Mirror", "My God Is Dead"), the band spans the stylistic arc of their distinctive Metal-meets-Medieval sound ("Scream For Me", "Song For The Godless") to the bittersweet acoustic ballad "Breeze". Together, the huge mix of elf-like vocals and deep-set growls create a bombastic widescreen production - from the heart into the fingers or "from the heart into the vocal chords", as singer Jennifer says.
