After leaving Tristania, one of the key bands in early gothic metal, Morten Veland created Sirenia to pursue his own musical vision without compromise. At Sixes and Sevens picks up where Beyond the Veil left off, but pushes further into gothic, gymphonic, and progressive metal territory. At Sixes And Sevens blends heavy riffs, layered synths, and dramatic vocal arrangements into something both dark and cinematic. Pete Johansen’s violin adds a haunting edge, and the vocal approach expands beyond the usual growl/clean contrast, adding a third clean male voice for more dynamic interplay. An Elixir for Existence is a darker, heavier, and even more immersive step into the depths of gothic metal. This is where emotional weight meets sheer sonic intensity.
To fans of this emotionally and musically complex art form, this is truly an essential part of any collection of gothic metal albums. It underscores Veland’s unique ability to mold together a large collection of ideas into one cohesive musical illustration of dark beauty.
