Haunting, beautiful and intense, are just some of the words that could be used to describe LIFE CRIED's sophomore album "Banished Psalms", the follow up to the band's critically acclaimed 2006 release "Drawn & Quartered". Band leader Chris Reject continues to push the boundaries of personal expression with his unique mix of introspective lyrics fused with dark electro and classical gothic influences.
Founding the band in 1999, Reject worked on his debut for five years before choosing to release it, similarly he spent three years working on the songs that would become "Banished Psalms".
With "Banished Psalms" listeners get a rare glimpse into the mind of this eccentric front man, with tales of personal strife, love and addiction carefully interwoven with an underlying theme of a loss of faith. Musically, we find LIFE CRIED firing on all cylinders, from the pounding stomps of "Bloodstained" and "Forbidden" to the fragile atmospheres in "More to Tarnish" and "Alone" Reject has pushed the sonic envelope of LIFE CRIED into something much more than what we have come to know as 'Dark EBM'.
