Originally, Gregorian was conceived as a more pop-oriented group in the vein of Enigma, the multi-million selling act created by Frank Peterson and Michael Cretu in 1989. In 1998, Peterson and his team Jan-Eric Kohrs, Michael Soltau and Carsten Heusmann re-invented the project to perform popular songs in the Gregorian style. The criteria for song selection were strict; in order to be considered, a song needed to be translatable into the 7-tone scale. For each album, songs were carefully chosen in addition to original songs written by Jan-Eric Kohrs, Amelia Brightman and Carsten Heussman. Twelve vocalists - previously acclaimed session and choir singers - were then hired to record the tracks. Each Gregorian album is initially digitally tracked at Nemo Studios, Peterson's Hamburg studio. The vocalists then record their parts in a church atmosphere with dimmed lights and candles, in order to escape what Peterson referred to in a 2001 interview as the "cold and technical" studio atmosphere. The concept proved to be successful, and the group proceeded to record several more Masters of Chant albums in the same style, and have been successfully touring throughout Europe and Asia for over 10 years. Their album, The Dark Side of Chant, was released on 15 October 2010 in Europe and is now available for sale in the United States. Review: A solid and enjoyable piece of work. - Gregorian is a German rock band, who performs covers of popular songs and original material in the Gregorian chant style. That being said, if you are looking for traditional Gregorian chants, this may not be for you. If you enjoy great music that is performed by musicians who really know their craft, and are open to something different, you will enjoy Gregorian.. The music is soothing and relaxing. The cover of Unheilig's "Geboren zu Leben" sung in English as "Born to Fell Alive" is simply amazing. The album"Dark Side of the Chant" is a more up tempo collection from other Gregorian works.This album includes a unique and enjoyable cover of ACDC's " Hell's Bells" I believe this cover rivals the original. Overall, this album is a solid piece of work. Review: If you like Gregorian Chant, check this out! - The title intrigued me, so I checked it out. I love Gregorian Chant anyway, so what did I have to lose?? I was pleasantly surprised! Some tunes were very familiar, some I didn't know at all. And it was so neat to see the familiar ones taking so well to the Chant arragement. Madonna's "Frozen", and Evanessence's "Bring Me To Life" are two of my favorites here. The latter isn't as edgy as the original, but still sooo deliciously dark... "O Fortuna" I had heard in a more classical arragement, I definitely like this one a lot! Definitely something off the beaten path! If you like that kind of stuff, then check this one out. I'm glad I got it.

Terrific version of "Hell's Bells."
I heard Gregorian's version Hell's Bells on youtube, and I had to buy this album. It does not disappoint, every track is worth listening to.

My Kind of Music
I heard a clip of this music on YouTube and had to find the album. Once I downloaded it I was hooked. It was enchanting....sorry that was a terrible pun. I am an author and music is probably the most inspirational for my action scenes. This music took my current work in progress to new heights. I am going to find other albums by this group and add to my collection.

Great Album
Love the music of the 16th century. This album modernizes the famous Gregorian Chant from darker perspective. It is very unique!

GREAT
Excellent album! I have just discovered GREGORIAN in the last six months. I love their arrangements of songs I have known for years. It has given me a whole new perspective on the song's meaning.

Awesome sauce
Great collection of chat music, By far I'd have to say this is their best record. Consider listening to them on Pandora or you tube for a sample.

Not as "churchy" as other chant albums
I really enjoyed the music in this album. (Love the artwork too) The music is not as foreboding as the art would have you believe!

Il gruppo è da sempre una garanzia, in questa sperimentazione musicale, canto gregoriano+musica contemporanea. Li seguo sin dal primo album e non mi hanno mai delusa. Per chi adora le atmosfere un po' "dark", questo album è proprio per voi!

いままでのグレゴリアンが大天使なら、こちらは堕天使。 堕天使の淋しさまで伝わってきます。 とくにルシファーの格好良さといったらゾクゾクします。
