Lacuna Coil - Elysion

Gagarin 205, Athens

Saturday, 3 December2011

 

All started in time and  so in 21:00 exactly Elysion got on stage. One Band that definitely can not pass unchecked especially from the fans of Lacuna Coil. A very good choice for an opening act.

 

 

Their sound was very good as their appearance on stage. The people seemed to have a lot of fan. Christiana was the center of everyone's attention since the other members of the band gave har a lot of space. I would prefer less voice dubbing since I don't believe that they have any problem on vocals. Elysion played seven songs from their debut album "Silent Scream", a Rammstein cover "Mein Herz Brennt" and a brand new song from their upcoming album. The song is called "Made Of Lies" and you can watch it at the end of this post.

Very good for sure and very promising. We are eagerly waiting their new album.

 

 

The time for Lacuna Coil to go on stage had come. The fans welcomed the band very warmly. After the intro the members started getting on stage leaving as the last person Cristina Scabbia. First song was "Our Truth" and Cristina with her unmatching appearance, although she was simple, her perfect moving and energy started to sing. The crowd was very warm and the band showed from the beggining that was having fun. Next song was "To The Edge". The band showed a more metal character and the frontwoman started the headbanging. Groove that makes you dance and melodies that travel you to the East. Some of the songs that followed were "I Won't Tell You", "I'm Not Afraid", "Heaven's A Lie", "Daylight Dancer", "Swamped", "Fragle" and  "Enjoy the Silence".

 

 

16 songs in total with the new "Trip The Darkness" and the song "Spellbound" they closed a wonderful night with the crowd cheering them. The sound during the whole concert was amazing and the whole organisation as well. Lacuna Coil is a band phenomenon and they proved with their appearance that even after so many years in the scene still love what they do. One more thing that should be said that even if they are from Italy, a country which is not famous for the metal scene, they give a optimistic message to all of them that want to form a band but they feel unlucky because they are in countries like Greece. All that it takes is really hard work.
