Enslavement of Beauty,成立于1995年的挪威旋律黑金屬樂團(tuán)。雖然算得上是一支十多年的老團(tuán)了,不過目前為止作品并不算多,僅僅發(fā)行了三張正式專輯。近期樂團(tuán)剛剛發(fā)行了2009年的最新Ep作品《The Perdition》,也是因?yàn)檫@張Ep讓我有幸認(rèn)識(shí)了這支優(yōu)秀的樂團(tuán),實(shí)在有點(diǎn)相見恨晚的感覺。無論從氣質(zhì)和音樂質(zhì)量來講,我都會(huì)給Enslavement of Beauty很高的分?jǐn)?shù)。由于樂團(tuán)中的成員都參與了數(shù)個(gè)不同的計(jì)劃,這使得樂團(tuán)的整體實(shí)力顯得格外的沉穩(wěn)老練。他們的作品編排華麗、段落工整、旋律流暢,死黑嗓的搭配也堪稱完美,每一張作品都可以說是不俗之作。特別是1999年的首張作品《Traces O`red》,堪稱一張極其完美的旋律黑金屬佳作,曾經(jīng)也受到了極其廣泛的好評(píng)。另外,許多人拿Enslavement of Beauty和Graveworm進(jìn)行對(duì)比,雖然他們的作品并沒有墓穴那般的恢宏大氣,但每段旋律之中都無不透著一股老練而不俗的實(shí)力。不過由于樂團(tuán)的活躍度不高,所以并未達(dá)到像Graveworm那樣廣泛的知名度,但是卻是一支不能錯(cuò)過的好團(tuán)。這些日子聽多了壓抑沉悶的氛圍黑,聽得整個(gè)人昏昏沉沉的,已經(jīng)快到了聽什么都聽不下去的地步。不過他們的作品竟讓我有種死而復(fù)生的感覺,又讓我找回了那種金屬樂中能讓自己的興奮的快感。
Enslavement of Beauty is a symphonic black metal band from Norway. Enslavement of Beauty was formed in January 1995 by Ole Alexander Myrholt (vocals & lyrics) and Tony Eugene Tunheim (guitars & composing). The band spent the subsequent years composing and recording material and thereby developed their expression. In the summer of 1998, Enslavement of Beauty recorded the demo CD “Devilry & Temptation” which gained them a deal with Head Not Found/Voices of Wonder. This resulted in the 1999 release “Traces O’ Red” which received very positive response. In November 2000, the beauticians headed back to the studio to record their second album, “Megalomania”, accompanied by drummer Asgeir Mickelson (Borknagar/Spiral Architect) and bass player Hans-Aage Holmen. In 2007 the third album, “Mere Contemplations” has been successfully released with the I.N.R.I. Unlimited label. Musically the band still sounds very melodic and deeply inspired by classical music but with a sharper metal edge and a truly hell-bent rock ‘n’ roll attitude. Lyrically Enslavement of Beauty is more direct approach but still highly influenced by the poetic beauty of William Shakespeare and Marquis De Sade’s works.
