ORPHANAGE - BY TIME ALONE (1996) + DRIVEN (2004)


genre : symphonic death
similar bands : Septicflesh, Theatre of Tragedy, After Forever
origin : Netherlands
strong spot : songwriting, originality
weak spot : terrible covers

Orphanage is a band very close to Within temptation and After Forever, they have toured together and they have shared the same members in the past. Within Temptation and After Forever have become big names in the metal scene whereas Orphanage, for some reasons I never really understood, remained almost unknown. You can listen to these albums and judge for yourself. Symphonic death at its best, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

10 out of 10 goatheads for ''By Time Alone''
