Last week, they reached the US top lists. Nice for a British pop group looking to emerge from anonymity via a targeted Facebook campaign. Remarkably though, the pop group is not reaching the 'ordinary' top. In fact, with the song 'Trust', Bitter Ruin is on the opera list.
But it is less surprising than it seems. At Amazon, the band falls under the Vocal&Opera category. And anyone who sees the theatrical video and hears the fierce, technically rather complicated duet vocals will understand: this is opera.
