Tears To The Fallen

Gothic Doom Metal – One-Man Band Solo Project

Original lyrics and production.

Style and Atmosphere:

Genre: Blessed Doom Metal / Symphonic Gothic Doom Metal.

Tempo: Slow and heavy pace (andamento lento e pesado).

Atmosphere: The music must evoke an extremely dark, cold, and gloomy atmosphere, like an ancient ruin under a thick fog.

Instrumentation and Sound:

Guitars: Dense and heavy distortion (mid-low range).

Drums: Doom/Hammered rhythm (ritmo martelado) with heavy crash cymbals.

Bass: Melodic and prominent bass lines.

Keyboards: Abundant use of melancholic pianos and mellotrons.

Vocals (The Beauty and the Beast):

Female Vocal (The Beauty): Ethereal lyrical soprano, singing in a melancholic, almost lamenting tone, with plenty of reverb and delay.

Male Vocal (The Beast): Deep, cavernous guttural (Death Growl). The growl should represent doubt or struggle, appearing in the Chorus for dramatic contrast with the soprano’s hope.

Theme: Christian faith and love.
