Symphonic/gothic metal collective Belle Morte closes out 2025 with a final, intimate release: the acoustic version of "My Legacy", from the band's debut album, Crime Of Passion.
Stripped back to its emotional core, this new version reveals a different side of "My Legacy". The symphonic weight gives way to atmosphere and nuance, letting the song's melody and meaning take centre stage. It's a reflective moment, deliberate, and honest, that feels like a farewell, and a thank you at the same time.
Formed in Minsk, Belle Morte combines dark symphonic metal with gothic, progressive, and melancholic elements. After their 2018 EP, Game On, the band signed with Wormholedeath in 2021 to release Crime Of Passion, a conceptual debut album inspired by John Fowles's The Collector. Their sophomore album, Pearl Hunting, released in January, continues this global approach, delivering unique symphonic metal experiences for fans seeking something different. Link
