Severed Heaven-United Kingdom

Type of music-Death Metal/Black Metal
Type of label-none

First, it was occurred in the darkest and gloomiest pub cellar of all Leeds A really good concert room. Quite small but really nice. I was really exited to see their performance because I had checked out on their Myspace page before that, and I have to say that I was surprised to hear a real good and dark atmospheric doom/death metal, played by these beauties.

They played during approximately one hour, and have turned this gloomy place into a fuc**** hell ! No really, even if it was not that crowded, these girls achieved to play a really efficient death/doom metal. The apocalyptic atmosphere they created, especially through the guitars and the shredding screams of Satanica, was something really unique and rare.

Switching from furious and destroying rhythms to slower and more painful ones is something that these girls really mastered. They are so professional and concentrated when they are playing, it’s a real pleasure to see them live.

I have to say that “Mercy” and “Sufferance” were my favourites titles because of the energy that these songs involved.

A special thank to Leanne, and all my admirations as well, because she was simply so good at playing guitar! I really advise all the Doomsters of this forum to go to see them if they have the occasion. Don’t miss them guys!

Reviewd by David/Darklink from the MDB forums, thanks David!

SEVERED HEAVEN @ The Snooty Fox, Wakefield Sunday 19th August!

Severed Heaven are somewhat of a rarity. An all girl Death/Doom Metal band will always find certain people are against them or maybe don’t think they have what it takes. That trend however stops here. On tonights display its clear that any of the afore mentioned opinion will get their throats well and truly ripped out. Its pure aggression!

Constantly dark and always ferocious, Severed Heaven display a confidence beyond their years and an ever growing tightness between the members. The result? An apocalyptic sound like the world could end with any chord played. Through “Sufferance” & “Darkness Falls” your left marvelling at the expert musicianship from all involved whilst front woman Satanica shredds into the crowd and the atmosphere like a raging sinister knife!

Its chuggy, brutal but always compelling, Severed Heaven are serious and they are coming to destroy your senses! (9) - Luke, DEATHDOOM PRODUCTIONS
