Similar to TSOTB
Permalink   

In all my searching i have come to the conclusion that there is no other band anything like TSOTB, but there must be some similar bands.


Sweet Mother of God and Early Tristania are perhapes the closest I could find, does anyone have any other recomendations?

Maybe it could be useful to tell as well on which points you find similarity.


For example, in early Tristania, is it maybe the combination of a clear female vocal, a grunting male, a perfect violin and the whole thing which is very musical that reminds on TSOTB?


Or is it maybe just the atmosphere in general that is more important?


Tell please a bit more about SMoG, I don't know this band.

Sweet Mother of God, I think the thing that reminds me of TSOTB is the entire atmosphere, each song paints such a musical landscape, although TSOTB is MUCH MUCH heavy sounding. Clear female vocals, and not a deep grunt like that of Glenn and Arild but a "sharper" sound, if that makes sense? I highly recomend "Deepest Pain" by SMoG, it is fre fo download at there web site, http://home.online.no/~dostby/ they also seem all but dead with no news in a LONG time


As for early Tristania, nothing could sum my thoughts up better, but perhapes also there lyrical themes reminds one of especially Lake of Sorrow?

Well i must agree with razorblade romance totally.There is definately not another band like TSOTB.I ve searched all over the world to find similar atmosphere and close details but my efforts so far are in vain.Reccomendations....many but with great differences from TSOTB.Eeriness with good atmosfere but no violin,Ashes you leave with violin and similar atmosfere but less quality in keyboards,How Like A Winter with many things but lack in melancholic atmosfere.


As for the Sweet Mother Of God its good but lacking in general atmosfere and quality.

Obviously I mean Laying Together AGAIN, my bad...


Also although Haggard sound nothing like TSOTB I do think there worth a mention, especially the song Lost, it is great...

How about old Theatre of Tragedy? Not as close as Tristania but not far off.

The lyrics to Tristania's Wold of Glass remind me so much of LoS. It's cool.

Another band with violin ( at least in their first album) it's the band of Lady Angellyca (Forever Slave). I love a lot too. Did you know it?
