Review

If Lithium comes into contact with the skin, it can cause severe chemical burns. In combination with Omega, the last letter of the Greek alphabet, Lithium forms an acoustic drug with a highly addictive quality: OMEGA LITHIUM! Their penchant for chemical substances is also reflected by the title of their debut album, "Dreams in Formaline". Formalin is an aqueous solution, a mix of formaldehyde and methanol which is used to preserve bodies, as well as anatomical and biological preparations.

The band's figurehead is 19 year old vocalist Mya, whose looks are on a par with her powerful and surprisingly deep voice and is definitely a force to be reckoned with by the international competition. Along with Mya, guitarist/main songwriter Malice, bassist/lyricist Zoltan and drummer Torsten have created a powerfully sinister sound which occasionally brings to mind the atmospheric goth metal of acts such as LACUNA COIL and EVANESCENCE, yet is always independent and marked by a variety of influences. OMEGA LITHIUM combine cutting metal riffs, rock elements, electro beats, machine-like coolness and haunting atmospheres at the interface of industrial, goth and metal. Music fans will be hooked on "Stigmata", which has true hit potential and is supported by a darkly morbid video clip with Tim Burton references; "My Haunted Self" with its male-female antiphon and an extremely creepy aura; the title track, "Dreams In Formaline" with strong industrial influences; and the bombastic "Snow Red". Whichever way you look at it: OMEGA LITHIUM must be the first drug which can be recommended without reservations – with no known risks or side-effects!
