Welcome to ATWKS!

“Life is a series of experiences, each of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.”

Octavia Sperati

Octavia Sperati is definitely one of my top 5 favourite bands, and not solely for the fact that they are a successful female-dominant metal band, but for the fact that they have not fallen into the "happy-times" (Ex. After Forever) metal trap. They've remained true to themselves from the beginning to the present, they're honest, they stick to traditional doom-goth music without denying who they are, and they're unique. When you hear them on the radio (which you'd probably rarely hear), you don't confuse them for any other band. And it's not just 1 person that you focus on when you watch one of their videos (Ex. Within Temptation and After Forever).... Every member is equally important.

Here's the latest from OS: Moonlit



I suggest you guys go out and buy their album Grace Submerged. A great gift for yourself. Who says we can't be a little selfish at times? I plan on buying it within the next few days!

Support the ladies of metal, and as the saying in doom goes.... STAY SLOW!
