Did you ever thought that Metal music could blend in well with Portuguese traditional Fado? No? Well me neither... until I've listened to this track by Dallian: "Caixa Pensatória", and realized how these two very unlikely allies could work along well together.
And it's really amazing when you listen, more towards the end of this song, to the transition of the strong powerful riffs giving place to the deep sad Fado music. It's the only track of the album where you can listen to this Metal/Fado fusion, as the rest it's all about the main prog/symphonic death metal sound of the band, but it does prove that when there's an open mind and creativity, one can blend in various genres and styles altogether.
Dallian were founded just two years ago in Leiria, Portugal, and the band describe themselves as being an unlikely synthesis, due to the alchemical merging of Metal music and the aesthetics of steampunk. The members are Carlos Amado (vocals/guitars/Portuguese guitar), Ricardo Carniça (guitars/backing vocals), Leandro Faustino (guitars) and André Fragoso (drums/percurssion).
In May of last year they have released their first full-length album: "Automata", so far the band's unique work of their discography, but surely one of many more to come!
