DARK MIRROR OV TRAGEDY
“The Pregnant of Despair”
Symphonic Black Metal
South Korea
“Pregnant of Despair”is the sophomore album of one of South Korea’s most revered metal bands, DARK MIRROR OV TRAGEDY. The CD is comprised of 10 tracks of what the band refers to as “Koreanized” symphonic/dark/black/gothic metal. The said “Koreanizing” of their brand of metal will surely sets them apart from the numerous black/gothic bands which are often undistinguishable from each others as you will surely be amazed on how they blended the Korean culture on their music and how it effectively morphed their music to be truly one of a kind and will prove to be a refreshing listen even to the jaded ears.
As the album title implies, DARK MIRROR OV TRAGEDY’s very unique take on music is replete with lyrical themes about desperation, sorrow, sadness that proves to be of cathartic essence rather making the listeners delve further into depression.
Bands that have the guts to try to be original or innovators are very rare nowadays and it’s even rarer to encounter a band that doesn’t only sounds original but also have an infectious effect to the listeners, we can guarantee you that DARK MIRROR OV TRAGEDY is one of those bands.
