01. The Night Of Fetus
02. Air
03. Nightmare
04. Sweetest pain

MISERIA is a band hailing from Finland, they play Melodic metal with Gothic and hard Rock influences, they are composed by 4 women and one man, and they are very young?
But please don't let the short amount of years in this planet fool you, because, this guys play like Pro's!

From the first track, I knew that I was in love with the voice of Virpi Loukkola, the 20 years singer of the band, her voice is very melodic, very sweet and it doesn't recur to the typical operatic vocals, also there are some death metal outbursts, very little but damn! They are also great! Vocals here are handled by Joni Kantoniemi, only male performer of the MISERIA.

"Air" is more laid down song, with a lot of Hard Rock Influences, and one of my favorite tracks in all the Demo, "Nightmare" has the most catchy chorus, I can't stop singing! The last track "Sweetest Pain" features an very nice male/female duet. 4 songs, 4 killer ones.

Well, since is only a Demo of 4 songs there's no much to say, but real potential is shown here, I really enjoyed this one, and it ranks high in my "Best Demo Of The Year - The Internal Sweepstakes Contest" I know, I need therapy.
