The Great Discord
- The Rabbit Hole
Fia Kempe – Vocals, Askel Holmgren – Drums, Andre Axell –
Guitar, Gustav Almberg – Guitar, Rasmus Carlson – Bass
Dimman has a very sinister feel to the music intro which
flows into Noire a more progressive metal song with some excellent female
vocals. Gadget has an industrial intro then a very metal feel to the sounds and
vocals and has a great head banging riff.
Darkest Day keeps up the progressive metal festival of sounds and vocals
with some excellent time changes. Tell Tale Heart has a very mid-eastern feel
to the music with some Dream Theater influences. The Red Rabbit has a more
metal less progressive sound that will have you singing along. Neon Dreaming
has a slow mellow sound that will have you close your eyes and drift away.
Downfall is the intro to Cadence this is definitely a song that is influenced
by Nightwish. Omen is if you can imagine Yes/ Asia
but with a more metal feel to it and female vocals. Persona ends this excellent
album with a Headbanging singalong song. Any fans of progressive metal need to
get this cd.
The Moth – Hysteria
Freden – Guitar/Vocals, Cecile – Bass/Vocals, Tiffy – Drums,
Curry – Drums
Empty Heart is slow stoner death style metal slow grinding
and heavy. Hysteria is a Sabbath guitar overdriven rhythm with lots of feedback
and growling vocals. Brachial is very slow and moody with a dark sinister feel.
Slow Your Pace again is slow grinding and heavy. This Life is even slower and
overdriven that most on here imagine Sabbath in slow motion. Blackness is
faster than the last few songs with a lot of overdriven guitar and deep
growling vocals. Loose crawls up from behind and works its way up your spine
and into your brain causing nightmares. Shattered is more in the old Sabbath
style but with growling vocals. Fail has bass that is so overdriven it almost
blows up the speaker and your psyche.
Jupiter the final song is very slow and steady with some vocals that are
sung not growled.
Tony Steele And The
Massacre – A Ballad for Dead Love
Tony Steele – Vocals/Guitar, Charlie Landsborough- Guitar,
Peter Mcparland – Bass
A Ballad For Dead Love the single is very old school country
western meets early Outlaws. Great guitar work and sing along vocals and a toe
tapping rhythm mixed with some Buddy Holly feel to the music.
Ponytails – Ponytails
Harvey Merrit – Vocals/Bass, Travis Goeres- Guitar, Liam
Ness – Bass/Guitar, Simon Furminger – Drums
Despair starts with the sound of a bass plucking then guitar
works its way in then some very melancholy vocals. Love to You is a slow sad love song that
just drifts on till the end. Next Time
starts with a mid-tempo and some great lead guitar which continues thru the
song. Old Ways is a very sixties
influenced number with some great musicianship. Pieces has sort of a 60’s meets
U2 quality to the song. Young Hearts is
another slow moving love song with lots of emotion that slowly builds till the
end.
