Album Description
Available in:
"This Is No Fairytale" is the fourth full length studio album by the Dutch symphonic black metal band Carach Angren. It was released on February 23, 2015 via Season of Mist.
The album is a modern interpretation of the Hansel and Gretel fairy tale with themes of domestic abuse, drug addiction, alcoholism, sexual child abuse, suicide, child abduction and cannibalism.
User Album Review
If one wanted to dissect This Is No Fairytale riff by riff, you’d probably find enough material here for several ordinary melodic black metal albums, even though death metal realms also rear their ugly head in the mix along with a few throaty growls. Keep in mind that before genre classification, several styles were seamlessly utilized into the music that we love and no one batted an eye to the genre switch-ups. But even so, this is still a black metal album at heart and it fires off just like one. I might even say that Charles Band’s Puppet Master theme seems at least referenced a little on the album’s closing track “Tragedy Ever After” and it certainly seems to benefit the closing statement of the record and it’s truly poisonous ending. While not ultimately long, it certainly showcases more skill and diversity than we’ve ever heard from the band before and further asserts my position that Carach Angren will be the next DImmu Borgir. I’m just wondering how many more albums they will have to release before people finally catch on and realize that the new kings of symphonic black metal are indeed already here and may their reign be ever long. Summary: Be forewarned. This dark twisted fairytale might be one of the most frightfully bombastic efforts in the realm of symphonic black metal that you will hear this year.
