来自德国的黑暗电子/歌特工业团体 Unheilig，应该说有着非常明显的德式风格特征，那副苍桑浑厚的嗓子就能给人非常强烈的感觉。这种德式男中音实在太迷人了，听起来磁性十足却丝毫不矫柔做作，轻易便能俘虏人心。在德国的乐团里拥有这种嗓子的乐团还是挺多，比如一些典型的德式新民谣团体，还有大多人所知的战车的主唱等。我想也许是跟德语的吐词不清式发音有关，又或者是受德国工业氛围的影响，于是造就了这种典型的迷人德式嗓音。
德国黑暗电子歌特Unheilig(邪恶)基本是走的传统路线，电子主调+交响男低嗓，轻车熟路，器乐的铺垫然后是人声的释放、深入煽情然后器乐、人声爆发，转折和承接自然……主唱的嗓音比较有磁性，演绎起来特别吸引人。
Unheilig [ˈʊnhaɪ̯lɪç] (German for "Unholy") was a German band that featured a variety of influences, including various pop and electronic styles as well as harder, nihilistic hard rock. The band was founded in 1999 and principally consisted of singer Bernd Heinrich "Der Graf" (the Earl) along with various musical partners.
