Shadow Reborn Invites You to the Realm of the Wicked (Review)

Shadow Reborn is a theatrical goth metal band from southern Florida. I’m a bit late to the party, I’m sorry to say, and have only just delved into their latest EP, Realm of the Wicked, which was released back in February 2022.

It is immediately apparent that Shadow Reborn is a band that values a thematic approach to both their appearance and their music, and Realm of the Wicked offers a tantalizing glimpse into their dark, glamorous world. With a running time of 26 minutes and 52 seconds, this EP is sure to carry you on a carnival ride of the macabre.

The atmosphere is set with the brief “Intro,” building anticipation before the jazzy cabaret that is the opening to “Danse Macabre” (my favorite track). Here, the listener is given a taste of the talent that Shadow Reborn possesses, as well as a heavy nod to their influences – The 69 Eyes, HIM, and Type O Negative, just to name a few.

While centered around the goth metal genre, further exploration into the EP showcases elements of 80’s glam and dark cabaret a la Emilie Autumn or Marquis of Vaudeville. “Danse Macabre” and “Tonight is Ours” are guitar centric songs, while “Her Mortal Embrace” has the addition of a more symphonic sound, given weight by the orchestral arrangements and haunting guest vocals provided by Hali Laso. “R” jumps out as the most unique track, a faster and harsher arrangement throughout which is threaded shredding guitars that are speed metalesque.

The EP is wrapped with a cover of Motley Crue’s “Ten Seconds to Love,” a tribute that stays quite true to the original. I personally prefer the slower, deeper voice of Shadow Reborn’s front man; it sounds shockingly similar to Jyrki 69 and I am a huge fan of The 69 Eyes.

Realm of the Wicked is a must-hear for all the rock and metal fans out there who enjoy the theatrical, the gothic, the glamorous, but I believe it also stands strong against the critique of those searching for more. Shadow Reborn is a gifted band with something to offer most rock/metal fans, so do yourself a favor and check them out ASAP!
