Brute symphonic black metal. Eight symphonies of black metal, full of sound and with a violin as their main instrument. A complex sound experience, as if conducted by the Horned One himself.
Suffering Souls is a symphonic black metal band out of Germany, and Sadistic Goat Complex is their third foray into creepy castles and haunted house environments. I kid, of course, the band is a little more serious than that, and this ultimately an enjoyable album, if not groundbreaking. To arrive at their sound, take the more playful black rasping and frenetic organ driven black metal of Dimmu Borgir, Gloomy Grim and perhaps a little Hangman's Hymn from Sigh, and lavish it all in even more use of the keyboards. The material has a tendency towards faster material, but the band does make use of breakdowns and the entire album is paced well.
