Unholy Majesty

简介
2008 album from the British singer/songwriter and daughter of Maddy Prior and Rick Kemp (Steeleye Span). Rose's unique powerful vocal is sometimes operatic, sometimes fierce but equally haunting, her musical style is extremely difficult to categorize. Heavy Folk Rock has previously been cited but doesn't really sum up this exceptional album. Woven together with multi hook harmonies and quality instrumentation, this album slowly buries itself under your skin. Lyrically the songs are compelling and their content somewhat mysterious but backed up with heavy rock guitar, oversized drums and old Synths and organs, they are infectious and thought provoking. Her influences are numerous but include the classic rock of Black Sabbath and stoner rock legends Melvins, Drone artists such as Earth and Om. She is also influenced by classic Black Metal, Doom and '70s Prog right through to timeless songwriters including Kate Bush and Tom Waits amongst many others. One Little Indian.
