From distorted guitars to sombre strings, acoustic melodies to grinding riffs, lonesome pianos to gigantic choruses and catchy vocal melodies, Carmen create a mix of Melodic Rock that carries from one extreme to another. Since 2004, Carmen have been playing everywhere captivating audiences with this unique blend of hard, emotional rock and gentle, intricate soundscapes filled with both traditional and electronic instruments.
Released June 2008, Carmen's debut album, "Angels and Dust" (available from most major retailers worldwide) is filled with "Anthemic Hooks" (Kerrang, Issue 1216), "sounds absolutely epic" (Big Cheese Magazine) is "about to make some waves" (Room Thirteen) and is considered one of the "Best Albums of 2008" (Concrete Web).
And with so much planned, so many surprises and a stunning live show, Carmen are a band not to be missed!
