Dark Sanctuary ‎– Exaudi Vocem Meam Part II, CD

塑料盒CD。法国新古典再版。

 THE 2006 OPUS OF ETHEREAL GRANDEUR FROM THE LONG-STANDING FRENCH PURVEYORS OF NEO-CLASSICAL DARKWAVE MUSIC.

Celebrated neo-classical act Dark Sanctuary formed in February 1996 in Paris, France,  with the initial line-up of Arkdae on keyboards and Marquise Ermia on vocals. Their official debut release followed soon after, in 1997, with the ‘Funeral Cry’ MCD. The band later added more members, including a violinist, at which point Dark Sanctuary recorded their debut opus, leading to a string of revered albums establishing the band as a leading light of the dark atmospheric genre into the new millennium.

In 2005 Dark Sanctuary began work on a larger-scale project called ‘Exaudi Vocem Meam’; a conceptual album which was ultimately to be divided into 2 parts. The album was recorded over the summer of 2005 at E-Studio in Germany, with part one released later that same year & part two following in 2006.

Following swiftly on the heels of part one, ‘Exaudi Vocem Meam Part II’ continues with a collection of richly layered and textured soundscapes in the vein of Dead Can Dance, with female vocals accompanied by strings, piano, and variety of instrumentation combining for an opus of ethereal art.

This reissue marks the first CD pressing of ‘Exaudi Vocem Meam Part II’ since its original 2006 release.
