A very technical band from Strasbourg (France) with a beautiful girl doing the vocals. Very good power/gothic metal that can bring you into a great atmosphere by keyboarder Nico . The band lacks however, in my opinion, a good bass player that could fill in some holes in the music.''Rock-pix.com Photography "Now it's international with the Alsatians of Midnight Sorrow . Another band with a singer that brings an equally high level of their very perfectionist symphonic metal. The singer Maureen with her friends, not least to pull through her voice a magical moment, and also Nico, the keyboardist at the keys has its grand entrance, he runs through very carefully."Rocktimes. durchzieht"http://www.rocktimes.de/gesamt/e/events/moonlight_metalfest12/tongeren12.html “....what an amazing band !
