Review by Okanlawon Opeyemi

Hollow Hills by All My Faith Lost is a mesmerizing album that captures the essence of ethereal and neoclassical music. The hauntingly beautiful vocals of Federica Mariani and Viola Roccagli blend seamlessly with the delicate instrumentation of guitars, piano, and strings. The album takes the listener on a journey through melancholic soundscapes that evoke feelings of nostalgia, longing, and introspection.

The opening track, "Landscapes," sets the tone for the album with its ethereal vocals and gentle guitar arpeggios. "The Waves" is a standout track that showcases the band's ability to create a dreamy atmosphere with its use of strings and piano. "Redemption or Myself" is a hauntingly beautiful ballad with emotive vocals and a simple yet effective guitar melody.

The album's title track, "Hollow Hills," is a haunting instrumental piece that showcases the band's proficiency in creating atmospheric soundscapes. "The Light" is a standout track with its uplifting and hopeful melody that contrasts with the melancholic tone of the rest of the album.

The band was formed in 1999 by Federico and Francis. The first steps did not have an exact direction, but then, while revisiting La Belle Dame Sans Merci (the John Keats poem), the work of the band began to focus on the enchanted world of the faeries, more or less rooted in every lands folk-lore. Viola and Raffaella, both singers and flautist, after listening some songs the band was working at, decided to join. The musical style became more romantic and folk than medieval as was at the initial times. After a few researches and after reading books like Faeries and Good Faeries/Bad Faeries by Brian Froud, some faerietales and some figures began to loom, becoming eventually songs. Some of them have been recorded in the first demo cd called Hollow Hills. The work had good rewiews in some Italian fanzines and the first song Asrai appeared in an Italian compilation enclosed to the fanzine ROSA SELVAGGIA and was played during the radio transmission Alternative Ocean in the local radio Onde Furlane. This incited the band to go on with the researches and in the creation of new songs. The interest of the band began to focus then on the spirits of the water. The band put together all the stories and the tales that tell about faeries, witches, elves and everything else living in the water. Water that can be rain, the water of a river or of a lake but can be also a tear. From this the name of the second work: In a sea, in a lake, in a river & &or in a teardrop. This should have been the second demo CD, but after listening to it, Gianfranco Santoro of the small independent label Sin Organisation, decided to release it in a limited version of 300 copies. The debut album is now almost sold out, and during 2003 the band recorded a full-length called Chamber Music, a collection of song-settings of James Joyce poems. After recording Chamber Music, Francis left the band, the only members are now Federico and Viola. With this formation the band faced up the first live performances.
