Dakrya - Crime Scene
When seven Greek charlatans get together the musical visions that springs from their minds can only be described as a true freak show. Back in late 2004 the idea of a band that could develop a theatrical attitude and combine different musical elements with the dynamics of metal and rock sound brought DAKRYA to life .... Following the usual demos and local live shows the band released its debut album Monumento in the spring of 2008. Receiving great reviews and good support from both the media and the fans in and around Greece DAKRYA started touring on a broader scale supporting such bands as MOONSPELL. In 2009 the band began to work on new material; the main goal was to put even more emphasis on the 'theatrical' style of DAKRYA and in January 2010 the band entered the studio with engineer George Bokos (Rotting Christ) to record their sophomore album Crime Scene. Come March 2010 the band find themselves sitting in a studio in Sweden mixing the album together with Pelle Saether (Diablo Swing Orchestra Draconian Madder Morten) followed by a trip to other Swedish sound-guru G Finnberg (Opeth Dark Tranquillity In Flames Arch Enemy) for the mastering of the disc. CRIME SCENE is actually a metaphor about the world we live in. So simple and so complicated at the same time. A person has to change so many faces in order to obtain a socialized and normal image that if you think about it a little bit we all look psychotic. In CRIME SCENE we improvise against reality! Snapshots taken from our everyday lives. From the opener The Charlatans over the obvious hit of The Urban Tribe to the final notes of the closing soundscape A Dreadful Sidescene the album is a one-of-akind musical experience. Ranging from the psychotic and cinematic melodrama heard in bands like Diablo Swing Orchestra and Unexpect to the orchestrated gothic metal comparable to Therion and Theatre Of Tragedy DAKRYA paints their mark all over the canvas.
