* LargeHam: ''Seregor,'' especially when he's reading the lines of a character. Notable examples include pretty much any of his readings of Van Der Decken's lines on ''Death Came Through A Phantom Ship'', and that of the violinist in "The Funerary Dirge of a Violinist".

* ConceptAlbum: Thus far, each of their albums has consistently told a story, although ''Lammendam'' went off on a tangent with "Heretic Poltergeist Phenomena".

* ConceptAlbum: Thus far, each of their albums has consistently told a story, although ''Lammendam'' went off on a tangent with "Heretic Poltergeist Phenomena". Although a big explanation...
** ''Lammendam'' focuses on the urban legend of the Woman in White.
** ''Death Came Through a Phantom Ship'' focuses on the origin of the Flying Dutchman.
** ''Where the Corpses Sink Forever'' focuses on a soldier forced to witness seven demons's stories of war.
** ''This is No Fairy Tale'' is a twisted version of fairy tale stories focusing on two children ala Hansel and Gretel.


Added DiffLines:

* TwistEnding: [[spoiler: The ending of ''This is No Fairy Tale'': The female protagonist realizes she and her sibling were ever in any fairy-like danger...she simply imagined everything as a way to cope with her abusive home life, with her drunken father arriving home...]]

Carach Angren are a Dutch symphonic BlackMetal band. Formed in 2003, they took an approach similar to Music/KingDiamond, with each album being a ConceptAlbum telling a ghost story.

'''Discography:'''

* Lammendam (2008)
* Death Came Through a Phantom Ship (2010)

!!Little tropers, what have you done?

* AscendedMeme: The "[[https://www.pinterest.com/pin/477733472944239359/ You came to the wrong forest, motherfucker]]" meme has gained notoriety and recognition by the band. They apparently found it amusing enough to release it on their hoodies and shirts.
* ConceptAlbum: Thus far, each of their albums has consistently told a story, although ''Lammendam'' went off on a tangent with "Heretic Poltergeist Phenomena".
* DrivenToSuicide: Happens often in their albums.
* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Averted, in that most of their lyrics are in English, but they slip into their native Dutch every once in a while without expectation.
* MalevolentMaskedMan: Seregor invokes this in live performances, where he puts on a crowned mask that resembles his corpsepaint. He also sells masks.
* MetalScream: Fittingly for a black metal band, Seregor has a standard type 3.
* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Stands at an 8.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Their first three albums are about ghosts. "Heretic Poltergeist Phenomena" explains it best:
-->Ghost, a lost semi-transparent appearance\\
Soul, a fog-like human form of mental anger, caught between life and death\\

-->A threatening presence of an invisible personality\\
It keeps bewitching the sceneries of earth instead of departing to a much more blissfull world\\

-->Doomed and forgotten in a mortal realm of bloom\\
Repeating tragedy summoned by the moon
* ShoutOut:
** The band's name comes from ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', and is a Sindarin word for "Iron Jaws".
** Their ex-drummer, Namtar, is named after a god from Myth/MesopotamianMythology.
* SopranoAndGravel: Every now and then, clean vocals are used to indicate that a different character is speaking. Jarringly enough, this was averted on "Bloodstains on the Captain's Log", when Seregor uses his own voice for Van Der Decken's wife Catharina.
* SymphonicMetal: Symphonic ''black'' metal.
