I tried these guys out recently, but was quickly put off by the vocals. Some great ideas, though, definately worth a listen if you're after something different in the Blackened Industrial/Goth/whatever area.

Zad, if you get the chance, you should try their 2004 album, Opus Dementiae. You might like that one better. I don't like the two following albums so much myself.

This one grew on me but you definitely have to like goth and industrial to get into it and even then, it's really experimental and quirky. Opus is just insane. It's all over the place. It's much more chaotic but also much blacker and intense. This one just feels like a bad version of Black Comedy most of the time... or when it actually sounds good, the keys remind of Die Krupps a bit.

Edit: Also, the AIC cover as a bonus track is a disaster for me... :mad:
