The Last Dance - Whispers in Rage
The Last Dance has made a major breakthrough during the last time all over the world with their album 'Whispers in Rage'. This group appeals to those who likes The Crüxshadows (which The Last Dance is supporting during their USA tour) although this band is a little bit harder and have more highlighted guitars and synthesizers.
The album is opened with the swinging track "Nightmares" and ends with the calm song "51051" which is dedicated to their late drummer (Ivan Dominguez 1968-2002). In between we can hear an orgy of tasteful goth rock/darkwave with songs like "Wonderlust", "Dead Man's Party" and "Terrebly When". In the track "Breath" you can hear some guitar riffs which remind you of what Santana used to jam. Intelligent and tasteful, just like this whole production is with lyrics and music.
This group have made some earlier releases but it's with 'Whispers in Rage' that The Last Dance really has broken through. I think it is only a matter of time before we will be able to see The Last Dance play at some of our Swedish festivals.
