We Are to Blame do have their unique way of making music. I don’t really know if it’s accurate to say they are Symphonic Metal because their music lacks some traits of the style. However, the female vocals combined with a raspy male one and the electronic effects makes them more near the Symphonic Metal than any other. There are, though, other features as the guitars of “The Change” that takes the band near the domain of modern metal. Keyboards here are very shy. My dear child of the night will listen to them as a background. The low guitars overtones are dominant here. If I had to say there are few melodies in “Duality I” except for the vocals of Alice Hartvig. If my dear fan knows Battle Beast or Metalite its bull’s eye. We Are to Blame’s sonancy is pretty near them. Maybe “Falling Down” gives the fan a better idea of what the band delivers here with the vocal duo nd the strong guitars. The grand finale is “All I Want to Say” with a slow mood theme that sounds as if a ballad. Alice Hartvig’s sweet vocals stand out.
I feel that “Duality I” is an album for the fans that like Metal with a pop flavor. If my dear fan is in the mood of this kind of album just go for it.
We Are to Blame “Duality I” was independently released on November 01st.
