Entering, auspiciously, their 20th year of existence… The 69 Eyes are more concentrated than before, knowing exactly how to play the game and where to focus mostly. Avoiding mistakes of the past and by giving quick sneaky looks at their previous albums that made an impact like: “Blessed Be” & “Paris Kills”… while taking good care of their sound… The 69 Eyes are on the top of gothic rock music, leading the way.
 

We all have some preferences to certain music styles & to a few bands that represent them. I can say that Lacrimosa is one of those bands that I revel in throughout the years. Their wonderful blending of dark, gothic, rock, metal, symphonic, neoclassical, dark wave, atmospheric music is something that does not leave you with any other alternative but to adore it.
 

Hey Angeline, Marco & Niko…Great work! Since it’s the first time we talk, please give a small hint of your band to the readers…
 
We’re a gothic band… we have 3 albums and started this project back in 2008.
 
 
So, what’s the story behind The Fallacy? Did it start as a project that turned out to be a band… or you set off as a band that was completed as long as Angeline came onboard, right after Viviana left the band?
 

It was about time for a new album from Moonspell… after all 4 years since “Night Eternal” were too many. That’s probably why Moonspell are offering their fans not one but two albums which are quite musical different.
 
“Alpha Noir” is the main release though… a heavy, black/death, thrash and vigorous album that shows the extreme side of the band. Surely, the melodies are there to break that heaviness… while the brutal vocals and the nice keys make the result rather interesting. I can spot some mid-90s Rotting Christ elements on some songs as well. Although the songs are OK… there isn’t a stand out tune on “Alpha Noir” that will make you go crazy.
