End Of Green - Twinfinity [CD]

Two CDs. End of Green have re-recorded their legendary debut "Infinity". Almost 30 years later, the band returns to it's droning roots - and sets the course for the future with a new deal with Reaper Entertainment. With their stoner goth, End of Green placed themselves in their very own pigeonhole right from the start in 1996. The legendary debut "Infinity", released by Nuclear Blast at the time, is a massive bridge between the gothic doom walls of Type O Negative and the droning desert air of Kyuss. Big songs, lots of reverb and plenty of oomph, somehow lamenting like the weeping marble statue in the cemetery and yet nonchalantly fucked up like a drinker after a successful night at the bar. And yes, singer Michelle Darkness sounds like he's singing to us from a musty crypt. Like the Lost Boys, only with guitars. The band calls it all "Depressed Subcore" - probably because they don't really know what else to call it. Metal, rock, goth, alternative... somehow the Swabians have it all. It rocks, like hell even. It has coolness and vibe. It mourns. It sits between the chairs in such a way that it's a joy. 30 years later, End of Green have re-recorded this monument between depression and hedonism. And the result is every bit as spectacular and special as you'd imagine. It all started for us with 'Infinity'," says singer Darkness. "This album is the starting point of a 30+ year journey. This band is my life, I can't and won't say it any other way. Without this band, without my boys, I wouldn't exist. It's all about the music for me. That's why this new recording was a very emotional experience for me. It's probably my most important album." With "Twinfinity", End of Green are also officially entering a new era. Suffering, as End of Green also show on this spectacular new recording, can certainly be fun.
