dark wave

Well, as one can propably understand, it is impossible not to observe that this band uses a name of hellenic orienatation-moreover, this release makes use of another greek work as a title.That makes a rather strong reference,indeed,provided the fact that Laburinthos have nothing to do with Hellas, whatsoever, since their country of origin is, in fact, Romania! Secondly, I must admit that never have I heard of them,until now, that is! Therefore, I ignored their existence, completely!

This album definitely made a good impression to me, upon initially seeing its artwork. Indeed, the art presented here is unique and gloomy, relying mostly on black and white touches, yet delivering a different approach to what we have come to think as acceptable, or even, dare I say, pleasant, especially when we are dealing with gothic iconography.
