Tragedy In Hope are a duo from Russia that has been featured before in this zine and plays a very symphonic form of black metal and this is a review of their self released album "Sleep Paralysis" which will be released in 2021.
Clean playing and symphonic sounds start off the album which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the music. Spoken word parts can also be heard in some parts of the recording along with some clean vocals also being utilized at times while high pitched black metal screams are also a very huge part of the songs.
When the music speeds up a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can also be heard while the riffs also add in a decent amount of melody. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the music also adding in a great amount of 90's influences as well as the songs also showing an influence of 90's era Cradle of Filth, touches of classical music can also be heard in some parts of the recording. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover dreams and nightmare themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Tragedy In Hope and if you are a fan of symphonic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Lucid Dream" "Winter Wedding Ceremony" and "Sleep Paralysis". 8 out of 10.
