HANGING DOLL / UK
The dark intense orchestral metal of hanging doll combines pure passionate and powerfull vocals with dense levels of narcissism and emotional longing. The fusion of brooding detuned guitar riffs with highly melodic string patterns and a metal core is without doubt a potent mix, both powerfull and poignant. Without conceeding to convention or imitation hanging doll are happy to dispel all critics and disbelievers with thier mature epic and multitextured sound. This is a band who are blessed with assured song writing and the ever present dichotomy of light and shade. This is a band who shift effortlessly from a stark melody with a shimmering vocal to a powerfull riff fueled impact.
