Press Reviews “A very fine and proper work of production, the musical approach is at the same time original and achieved, the talent deeply present.” HARD FORCE“ Deliciously depressive atmospheres, put into rhythm by a tearful voice and romantic lyrics. A full of promise future ” ELEGY“ A coherent and original music(…) A majestic greatness to those entrancing and dark pieces of music.” HARD ROCK MAGAZINE“ Keyboards make the blood run cold with their crystalline notes and guitars seem to cry in each methodical riff (…) A lugubrious and mournful atmosphere that the band seem to cultivate with a great success.” HARD N’HEAVY“ The lyrics, as deep as the music, make us discover strange and fantastic worlds. To be possessed in emergency !!!” LES SERENADES“ Appearing in the last HARD N’HEAVY, this demo deserves all that we can say about it. The gothic music that performs this band is simply excellent (…) LITURGY OF DECAY is a band to follow very closely because it gives, in his own way, the vision of a depressive and sadly beautiful gothic. To be possessed immediately ”.METAL STAGE« A magnificent 4 tracks CD of inspired and majestic Gothic music with keyboards and a smooth singer! Excellent. » HOLY RECORDS etc…
