All That Remains, Lacuna Coil, Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster, and From Sword To Sunrise at Barrymore Theatre
Lacuna Coil started life with a metallic lean, but Cristina Scabbia’s atmospheric vocals led the goth-rock group toward mellower (not mellow, but mellower) places. The Italian band’s recent Shallow Life continues the direction established on 2006’s Karmacode, which infused the original ideals of heavy metal into stylized, theatrical numbers. It’s weird, more than a little eerie, and more inspired than many of its progressive-metal peers. (It also doesn’t hurt that Scabbia is easy on the eyes.) Here, Lacuna Coil supports All That Remains, returning behind last year's Overcome, its most recent album of middling but respectable metalcore.
