DIRTY GRANNY TALES - INVERSED WORLD (2007)

genre : acoustic, dark cabaret, avant-garde, theatrical, black metal
similar bands : Tiger Lillies, Angizia, Sopor Aeternus
origin : Greece
strong spot : overall atmosphere, variety in vocals
weak spot : I'd prefer some electric guitars in the whole puzzle

''What happens when music bring puppets to life?''. Dirty Granny Tales is a stunning mixture of puppet theatre and acoustic experimental music in the vein of Tiger Lillies. I haven't seen their theatrical live show but I have listened to their music thoroughly and it is exactly what we could define as acoustic black metal. Some may find it boring, this is an album that demands several listens to be fully understood.
