Dialis
Precatic
by Scott Hefflon
Gothic rock. Not the Hot Topic/eyeliner kind, but an organic version, simply dark, brooding, somber rock. From Italy, two guys with friends (acoustic guitar, piano, various strings, and flute), and 11 songs to contemplate. There’s electric guitar on some tracks, plodding along at a thoughtful pace. No thrashing here. Self-produced, new band, off to a damn fine start.
