ELVIRA MADIGAN
REGENT SIE

"Like Marillions: "Brave" and Sabbats "Dreamweaver" rolled into one. A pinch of Cradle of Filth and you get Regent Sie with Elvira Madigan. Speed/Death/Black with vast beautiful soundscapes and a real conceptual storyline that will be remembered... for ages!" Where are the King Diamonds of today? The "Dreamweavers" (by respected English thrashers Sabbat) and the "Operation Mindcrimes"? The metal scene is lazy today and the concept albums are even more lazy. Well, there is no need in even trying to compare "Regent Sie" with "Mindcrime" for they share little common ground, but the "Dreamweaver" and King Diamonds more vivid releases are more accurate inspirations. Let's say that making an interesting, well told story with many twists and told in an original and intellectual form of the English language was the vision. This is really not a space for putting words into other peoples mouths though. So every writer, reader and listener is of course left to fend for themselves and to make up their own impression of what "Regent Sie" really appears as. But now the intention of this musical and lyrical artwork has been at least somewhat explained. Still, feel free to keep in mind that every detail has been perfected over a great deal of time. Half a decade was spent writing and creating this musical and lyrical tale of deception, family feuds and the usurping of both monarchy and religion - Everything told with tongue in cheek and with a moral or sarcastic hidden agenda.
