Crimfall - Where Waning Winds Lead
With all of it's symphonic epicness and distinctive sound this new band (started 2007) gives new dimensions to the beauty and the beast concept in vocals. The band is fronted by two great vocalists: Mikko Häkkinen (Thyestean Feast, Draugnim, Twilight Ophera) and
Helena Haaparanta (Tacere, Dewian) and the only other permanent member is Jakke Viitala who's brainchild the whole band is.
'As The Path Unfolds...' recording session members:
Henri "Trollhorn" Sorvali - Bass (Finntroll, Moonsorrow)
Janne Jukarainen - Drums (Naildown, Hanging Garden)
Maija Arvaja - Violin
Esa Korja - Cello
Terri Kunnaskari - Accordion
Oh, did I mention that Crimfall is actually symphonic-progressive power-viking-folk metal with a touch of black. Then again they're purely nothing of those but the distinct and awesome themselves.
What the heck, go find out yourself because
Crimfall's debut CD "As The Path Unfolds..." must be one of the most impressive debuts I've heard for a few years.
