Carach Angren – With Full Force – Ferropolis, Germany – June 23, 2017

Carach Angren was a band between bands – yet another symphonic black metal band, this one from the Netherlands. Their music is a cross between an orchestra concert and a horror movie, with violin and cello present. Their songs use English, French, Dutch, and German in their lyrics. Everyone was very robotic and yet dramatic in their movements on stage – for example, when the keyboard player moved, each movement was deliberate and rigid. Each person had their emotions all planned out to express various parts of the songs.

On the 16th of June, the week before With Full Force, their 5th studio album, Dance and Laugh Amonst the Rotten, was released.
