Sinister King are band based in Bergen, Norway. This is their new self released e.p. and it contains 5 songs of melodic metal. Music of Sinister King borders somewhere in between melodic heavy metal, melodic death metal, more modern oriented groove metal and epic harmonies in greatly written choruses. Lyrics are more melancholic, as are guitar hooks and melodies providing atmosphere of darkness and despair mixed with beauty. Vocals are good, demanding of the song, sometimes growled and more shouted, sometimes more classic metal singing. Piano and synth undertones provide rich soundscape taking us away for the duration of this e.p. My personal favorites are the title song and Death Of All Joy. I await eagerly for more from this band.
