†HYMNS†
Cardinal Sins- Contrary Virtues
Double CD Album FUNC052
Release Date: 12/12/2011
£10
On their debut double album Cardinal Sins / Contrary Virtues, †Hymns† create a series of beautiful, joyless songs of Apocalypse. The core lyrical concept is atheism, reinterpreting classical standards through the filter of post-punk and Nick Cave. Big guitars with intricate drums and a vocal line that’s far from priest like. Taking inspiration from the classical works of Arvo Pärt, Ludovico Einaudi and Steve Reich fused with the garage rock of Forget Cassettes, and Des Ark. This album is delivered with enough vitriol to fuel a thousand Death Metal acts
