Emaciation (Missouri, USA) – Dark and symphonic Metal with a range of influence from Black to modern Goth to 70’s stoner rock. Very diverse, to say the least. But unlike others that have attempted such combinations, Emaciation actually pulls it off.

The overall sound is distant and haunting, and the mix of vocal styling is excellent. I like that they included a live track on their MySpace to show that their sound survives the transition from studio to stage. My favorite song is “It Called To Me”.
