[/b]Still unsigned? sigh?[/b]

Miseria are sort of regulars here in the site, we've reviewed almost every single release here and more than one here wants to see them signed and with full-length album.
With each release (Demo's mostly) they push the envelop a little further and I'm very pleased to witness how the band mature with each release.

Now they offer us a single, entitled "Lost Forever", as usual, we get just a little of this band, only 3 songs contained in this Mini-Cd.
Presentation has been taken care as always with a professional-looking single Cd case along with some good artwork.

Production has gone up too, the keyboards sounds less "Nightwish" than before and the whole atmosphere of the album is less plastic and cold.
As their previous effort, vocals are handled almost 50/50 between the male and female singers, except for "Bitter Faith" that features some growling.

3 songs in the catchy vein of previous releases of the band, all songs rely heavily on the vocals and the keyboards, being this the best two assets of the band, as always.

Not really much to say here except, why are these guys still without a record contract?
While you hear untalented bands releasing material every day you see talented bands like this remaining unsigned.

My only hope is to see them releasing a full-length under a label.
