The Sorrows

Imbolg's second release expands upon their diverse style that ranges from traditional hard rock and metal in the vein of Black Sabbath, Danzig and Type O Negative while leaning towards the styles of Punk, Death Rock, Synth and of course Goth. All songs on the album were written by Imbolg's Singer/Guitarist Nate Dal Cais with the exception of the song "Your Darkest day" co-written lyrically by Chris "Pit" Gnecco formerly of rock band Ours.

The Sorrows was inspired by an Irish Folk Tale called Deidre of the Sorrows. Although the title itself sets a mood of sadness, and may suggests it may only contain more slow tempo or somber songs, nothing could be more false. A perfect example of this is the album’s first single "Red Devil" that echoes tones that are similar to two of the band’s main influences: Type O Negative and the 69 Eyes. Some other notable tracks include a more synth based song called "Edward" inspired by the Tim Burton's film Edward Scissorhands,  "An Autumn Night," a duet with Dal Cais on piano vocals and guest accompaniment by Helen Buyniski on violin, and "Paler Still," a modern punk rock song reminiscent of another of the band’s influences, The Misfits.

Hailing from New York City, the band has performed at such places as CBGB's Gallery, Witchfest on Astor Place, and Yasgur's Farm. The Current line up includes: Kitty Hawke on bass, Mark Demon on backing vocals, and Ken Holley, a cousin of rock legend Buddy Holly, on drums. Combined with ethereal synthesizers, an articulate and powerful rhythm section, topped with the potent and moving vocals, Imbolg's leader vocalist/guitar player Nate Dal Cais, The Sorrows  will not disappoint as they lure you into their darkly enchanted spectrum of sound.

The band is planning on revisiting several states along East Coast and possibly come out to the West Coast to perform. The aforementioned song "Red Devil" is also scheduled to be featured in the upcoming Acid Bath Production horror comedy "The Litch" starring Golden Globe nominated actor Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down) and actress and director Genoveva Rossi. Like their previous self titled album, The Sorrows will be available for sale in most major U.S. cities and for play in over 150,000 digital jukeboxes nationwide.
