SCARLET DORN – Queen of Broken Dreams (2022)

While SCARLET DORN might sit in the symphonic-tinged rock camp alongside the likes of Within Temptation and Epica, the German quintet fronted by Dorn is pretty different in their delivery adding a thick dark & gothic vein which make them pretty unique. There’s some sympho touches into their music, but this is basically rock&pop with heavy polished guitars, some electronics, big production, and Dorn’s distinctive voice.
That’s all you will hear on “Queen of Broken Dreams“, the band’s new upcoming album. A proof of the album’s accessibility is the song format with all tracks around the 4-minute mark. Free of genre boundaries, Scarlet sings herself directly into the heart of the listener, exuding a variety of emotions ranging from gentle and tender to menacing and somber.
