Black Kobzar Perhaps, the best definition of Vehemence Realized music will be “melancholic urban gothic music”. Michael Otley, whose timbre reminds that of Ian Curtis’, sings truly sad but fortunately not depressively: you want to live. The music seems to be the golden mean between the usage of live instruments and electronics though non-live drums sound absolutely dead here and there. A simple trumpet – Bach Strad – but Nathan Roane who played on it, seems to be an uncommon man.
