Faithfull to the musical traditions of their country, Austrian Metal musicians gather many influences from symphonic music, which turned into sonorities that I personally enjoy.
My first contact with the Metal music from this Central Europe country was through a band called Dreams Of Sanity, meanwhile extinct, whose singer was Sandra Schleret, now the singer of Elis, from Liechtenstein.
As a matter of fact, is from an Austrian band, inexplicably unknown, Hollenthon, an album that for me is one of the best Metal albums of all times. With Vilest of Worms to Dwell, released in 2001, is epic, powerful and symphonic... perfect!
Another of my favourite bands, and oddly unknown to many, is Visions Of Atlantis. Maybe because they have changed the female voice very often, they haven't assured the necessary stability to become more known.
