Descendants Of Cain

Tao Of Wisdom And Misery

At the end of the 90s, the London Band Descendants of Cain made their mark with their first performance together with Incubus Succubus at the legendary Camden Underworld. Shortly after an increasing loyal fan base encouraged the band to release their debut album "Atziluth" on their own followed by three additional albums and further fantastic live shows together with The Damned and NFD. Now the band present a fresh line-up, a new label and an awesome fifth album. In "The Tao Of Wisdom And Misery", mastermind Darryl "D" Kruger holds a mirror up to mankind and points out the dualisms of the material world. The supposed wisdom of humanity in contrast to misery as a result. "D" gets even with his own species: "It is the wisdom of this humanity to know no peace." or "You cannot buy your happiness with the blood of childrens screams". The vocals vary from ambient elegiac to aggressive metallic. Sound collages weaved around the voice take the listener on a magic trip through the bright and dark realms of the human soul. And again, DoC have produced an outstanding new album which doesnt fit into any pigeonhole at all. The unique mix of atmospheric Goth Rock, vibrant Industrial Metal to Ambient and neoclassic elements represents the bands originality in their music. The lyrics are far from being blatant or nebulous, but brave and to the point. Thats the sound of modern Goth Rock.
