More Info:

Hailing from Italy and driven by the force of the mid-nineties Gothenburg sound, Tystnaden?s debut, Sham Of Perfection is the perfect mixture of complex compositions and driving, atmospheric melody. Laura de Lucas' voice and the varied compositions of similar orientation to Scandinavian bands are sure to enthrall fans of Nightwish and Evanescence just as they will do for fans of progressive or the heavier kinds of heavy metal.Tystnaden is, apparently, influenced by In Flames and Dark Tranquillity. It's probably not so wrong when you listen to some guitars riffs of the album but to be honest, I'm quite sure that the majority of the people who will listen to this album first will only have one name in their head, Lacuna Coil. You'll tell me that it is evidently really simplistic to do a comparison between these two bands just because Tystnaden has a female singer, but believe me their two universes are not so different?"Sham Of Perfection" is not a bad album. The ten songs are correct and are an alternation of Melodic Death Metal and Gothic/Atmospheric music a la Lacuna Coil. Though, Laura de Luca has a really nice voice and the death vocals of Lorenzo Frascaroli are also extremely good too. The riffs and melodies are catchy in general but a bit easy. Nevertheless, the guys of Tystnaden tried to add some instruments like mandolin or violin but since that the rhythms are fast in general it's not unpleasant.This is their debut album pressed on 180 gram red slushie vinyl.
