Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Originally formed as What's the fuck in 1996, ETHS (alternately spelled as Eths) is a French goth/death/melodic/heavy metal/Alternative Metal band formed in the city of Marseille. The original lineup of ETHS, including former vocalist Candice Clot, came together in 1999 when the band was renamed to Melting Point. After the founding lineup was complete, the band again changed their name to "Hets", which they then decided to change to ETHS after realizing "Hets" sounded like the English word "heterosexual".Their music uses a lot of Harsh Vocals and Metal Screams (performed by a female vocalist,) with often oppressive-sounding instrumentals. The lyrics often have very dark themes, using elaborate metaphors to deal with topics like abortion, rape, bulimia, death... III and especially Ankaa mark a thematic change, with many songs about mythological thematics, while retaining a similar writing style.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The band publicly disbanded in 2017. | |

"V.I.T.R.I.O.L." ends with a woman screaming and the sound of repetitive, muffled thumping. The terrifying implications are strong in that song. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
ETHS (Music) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Most of the songs are in French, but some of the title are foreign words or phrases. The Soma album is named after an ancient Greek word which means "body". Tératologie opens with a short, instrumental track named "Stultitiae Laus." It means "Praise of Folly" in Latin, a pretty accurate name considering how dissonant the track sounds. "Ex Umbra In Solem" is Latin for "From shadow to light." "Nefas" is Latin for "which is not allowed." "Nihil Sine Causa" is Latin for "Nothing without cause." | |

Later-Installment Weirdness | |
ETHS (Music) / int_7b21ef92 | comment |
Later Installment Weirdness: Most of their songs are in French, are originally written instead of being either covers or based on a poem, and feature Candice/Rachel as the main vocalist (beside some early songs), but there's two exceptions in later albums: "HAR1" from Ankaa (the last album, not counting their best-of) is notable for fitting none of those properties. The song is in English, the lyrics aren't entirely original (the chorus is verse 3 and 4 of William Ernest Henley's Invictus), and the chorus is only sung by Björn Strid, a male guest (Rachel sungs the verses). The limited edition of III contains a cover of Madonna's "Music", sung in English. Candice is the main vocalist on this one. | |

"Nihil Sine Causa" is another song with a Latin title, with vocals in English. Also, the Soma album is titled after an ancient Greek word, and Ankaa is named after the Arabic name of a star. | |

Lyrical Dissonance: Not the original songs themselves, but the band performed acoustic covers of a few of their songs ("Détruis-moi," "Ondine," "Proserpina," "Gravis Venter") during a 2012 radio interview for the French radio station Oüi FM. It results in songs with the same disturbing lyrics, now sung with a gentle voice accompanied with a quiet tune played on an acoustic guitar. | |

The bonus tracks are four demo versions of Soma tracks. | |
