(Emotional Gothic Rock) YORICK - The Rest Is Silence - 2004, WMA (tracks), 192 kbps

The German band Yorick is out with their debut album the Rest Is Silence. I found very little information about the band, but I thought their style was interesting and thought that they needed some attention. Musically Yorick plays a blend of Emotional Gothic Rock with a touch of Metal, classical music and soundtrack inspired music. The album opens with the eight minute long titletrack The Rest Is Silence, a dreamy song with piano driven melody parts, string arrangements and dreamy beautiful singing by Thea Titvinidze. Yorick has a special style and it`s difficult to compare their music with other bands, in my opinion they have their own style and throughout the album they take us through a musical landscape filled with different kinds of styles. The production and sound is good and natural something that lets the listener hear details from each instrument very good. Fairytale and Dracula is two of my favorite songs, nice piano playing, good vocals and the different instruments played in the songs makes them be special.
