End My Sorrow - A Mind Unsolved
Danish newcomers End My Sorrow recorded their first demo And Suddenly Death Appeared in 2002, with three rather harsh songs containing male vocals. Two years later they polished their sound a bit and let the vocalist Heidi Sorensen handle the singing duties, which resulted in the excellent 3-song demo Once. On the first, and by far the best, song on the new demo A Mind Unsolved the male and female voices meets for the first time. But is this the best demo by End My Sorrow so far? Well, no. Firstly, the new singer Liv Stikling has a good voice, but feels rather pale in comparison to the previous vocalist. And where Once was high class all the way through, A Mind Unsolved contains a typical filler track ("Behind The Truth") and one that is merely okay ("Show Burning Red"). At least when compared to "Wither Away", a track that manages to be both brutal and catchy at the same time. Yet, End My Sorrow is a fascinating constellation, even
though A Mind Unsolved is lacking something in certain areas. The music
is difficult to classify, but is probably best described as gothic metal
with a bit of edge to it, as well as influences from bands like Metallica
and Iron Maiden. We can assure you that you will here about End My Sorrow
in the future, because this is a both promising and interesting band.
