Misanthrope - 1666 Theatre Bizarre
Review by Wilhelm Koenig
The album 1666 Theatre Bizarre by Misanthrope is a captivating and intense musical journey that showcases the band's unique style and influences. This French metal band has always been known for their experimental approach to music, and this album is no exception.
The album opens with the track "1666 Theatre Bizarre," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. It features haunting melodies and atmospheric soundscapes that create a sense of foreboding and unease. The vocals are powerful and emotive, adding to the overall intensity of the track.
The album then moves on to "Catacomb," a fast-paced and aggressive track that showcases the band's technical prowess. The guitar work is particularly impressive, with intricate riffs and solos that add depth and complexity to the song.
Other standout tracks on the album include "La Marche Des Cornus," which features a haunting chorus and eerie instrumentation, and "La Danse Macabre," which is a frenzied and chaotic track that perfectly captures the energy and intensity of Misanthrope's live performances.
