Inkubus Sukkubus have been making music for 21 years. And they are British. I can only assume that my love affair with Souxsie and the Banshees throughout the eighties and nineties must be the reason that I had never heard of them and only discovered them by chance a few months ago. Their music is Divine. Although it could be compared to other gothic, punk or alternative genres of music it is completely fresh and original. For me, what makes it stand out is it's originality. I bought this album for Heart of Lilith, but then all the songs gradually grew on me until I cannot choose a favourite. The cover of Paint it Black by the Stones is brilliant and works so well with Candia's voice. The ballad Sweet Morpheus is wonderfull. Metallica always describe their work as a crafted composition. Each note played and how it interweaves with every other note played from each instrument and the vocal layering and lyrical content is painstakingly constructed. As a metallica fan, I would put Inkubus Sukkubus on a par with Metallica as masters of their craft.

Blessed Be!
12 Sep 2004
Format:Audio CD
I heard Inkubus Sukkubus by accident on Web-radio one day ...and it was one of those rare life-altering events. I was a pure Rock n' Roll Guy for most of my life, but hearing the pristinely pure and yet somehow tormented voice of the incredibly beautiful and obscenely talented lead singer Candia, I was hooked. Some say that a picture is worth a 1000 words... well tangentially, I say this woman's voice cannot be described in words...it simply left me speechless... I bought all their albums (imports included) within the week and have told everyone I know... I am planning a trip to the UK just so I can see them perform...They are just that good...
What Makes Inkubus Sukkubus so amazing are their lyrics and instruments are fantastic as well...so there is much more to this band than the stunningly hot and super-cool lead singer who I now feel like praising all over again... (Man she is so talented its makes it even more of a sin that Brittany spears is famous and Candia is not...) But back to the band... They really are amazing... They experiment with different production techniques and sounds so that no two songs are the same despite all having a strong pagan/wiccan influence... You can download some of their songs from their Website... please give them a try... you wont be disappointed...
I cannot over-emphasize how much you need to buy this album (and all the other Inkubus Sukkubus Albums) If you are a young Goth you likely have them already... but even white collar lawyer-schmucks like me can benefit from the mind expanding experience this bands music provides...I thought I was clever before...but I have learned so much from this band... My life has been changed for the better... and yours will be too if you let this goddess sing for you...
Thanks for everything Inkubus Sukkubus... Blessed Be!

Witches Playing with Vampires
15 Feb 2008
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you like Gothic themes, vampires and musical witchery, this is a CD you should try out. The music is chilling, haunting and -- in a way -- more traditionally "Gothic" than some of the band's more recent offerings (which is not a criticism of their recent work; CD's like "Supernature" and "Science and Nature" are each excellent in their own way). At times rhapsodic, at other times sad and melancholic, this album drives and pounds in the nails as it carries the listener from one pagan theme to another.
