一聽音樂網

Guitar: Eric Treffel Drums: Martin Innerbichler Keys: Sabine Mair Vocals: Stefan Fiori Guitar: Stefan Unterpertinger Graveworm（墓穴蠕蟲)，一支來自意大利，一偏向死亡的風格為主的樂隊。出道以來一直在德國發行作品。他們的音樂受到眾多老牌金屬的不同風格影響，并將這些元素加以融合，形成自己獨有的音樂路線。在Graveworm的音樂中，你可以聽到交替的黑嗓和死嗓。民謠曲風和交響編排融會貫通，凌厲的速度和古典氣質平衡的完美異常。 在人聲上，使用了雙聲交替混合唱法，Abigor的主唱Stefan Fiori在此擔任了人聲工作，在專輯中，刺骨的黑嗓與野獸般低吼的默契配合也可算是作品中極為出彩的部分。Stefan寬域的嗓音和多元的變幻絕對令人信服。緊湊的節奏富有張力的riff迅猛的鼓點再加之美麗的Sabine Mair的鍵盤所營造的優雅且絢麗多彩的氛圍相得益彰。盡管專輯中的作品聽起來似乎很熟悉，然而作品的旋律并不會讓人感到膩煩，反而朗朗入耳，激情盎然。 但往往眾口難調，有人說該專輯像極COF，Dimmu Borgir等等毫無新意而言，也有人抱怨樂隊沒有堅持一路原則眾說紛紜。在我看來，這是Graveworm自己真正的聲音，永遠走不出他人拘泥的圈子而喋喋不休的加以比較才是最虛偽的傻瓜。 Graveworm is a symphonic black metal band with members from Italy and Germany formed in 1992. Graveworm was signed by Serenades Records in 1997, releasing their first EP, Eternal Winds, in that same year. During their first tour together with Crematory, Therion and Lake of Tears, the band promoted the album When Daylight’s Gone. In 1998, the EP Underneath the Crescent Moon was released, featuring Sarah Jezebel Deva (Cradle of Filth, Therion) in the track “Awake…Thy Angels Of Sorrow”. Graveworm also performed at the Wacken Open Air (Germany) with bands like Children of Bodom, Cradle of Filth and Vader. The second album As the Angels Reach the Beauty was finished in 1999, and followed by a European tour with Agathodaimon. Scourge of Malice was released in 2001, which allowed the band their first headliner tour together with Dornenreich, Vintersorg and Darkwell. In 2002, they changed to the German Nuclear Blast label. At this point, Didi Schraffel (bass) left the band and Harry Klenk (guitars) was replaced by Eric Treffel. Treffel soon left the band in the same year and was replaced by Eric Righi on guitar. Together with Righi, they produced Engraved in Black, which was finished in 2003, and enhanced with a feature of R.E.M.’s “Losing My Religion”. Shortly after the release, Stefan Unterpertinger (guitar) quit and Lukas Flarer joined the band. Also, Harry Klenk, former guitarist and now bassist, re-joined the band. In 2004, Graveworm played on the X-Mass Festival tour together with Destruction, Kataklysm, and many others. Martin Innerbichler (drums) took a break to study and was replaced by Moritz Neuner (previously the Darkwell and Shadowcast drummer). The band’s newest album (N)utopia was released in 2005. Lukas Flarer (guitarist) has left the band for personal reasons and been replaced with Orgler “Stirz” Thomas. In 2006, Graveworm embarked on a North American tour with Kataklysm, Destruction, The Absence, and Vader. The band is currently working on its next album, which will be produced by Andy Classen at Stage One studios in Borgentreich, Germany.
