''Vagely what you'd expect from a band that
contains a questionmark in their name. Transcending is probably best
described as symphonic black metal, with maybe extra emphasis on
symphonic. The band does lots of spooky intros (think Nile), and
integrates plenty of keyboards and orhcestral bits into the music
itself. Imagine Akercocke but with a little less speed and a little
more experimental. While the black metal aspects are nothing unique
(although certainly well performed), I find myself really enjoying the
orchestral bits (the strings mostly), they integrate really well into
the music, add lots of atmosphere, and make the music kinda catchy. The
literature mentions a comparison with Danny Elfman, which is quite apt.
If you always wanted to see how the music of "A Nightmare Before
Christmas" would have sounded if it had been handled by a black metal
band (mixed with a few middle eastern themes), check out this album''(about ''The Serpent's Manifolds'' album, check it also at www.soulkillerwebzine.com )
