Review:

 

In the first track, you can recognize the melody from Beavis. It's rhythmic

whith a happy voice during some seconds. The bass is extremely powerful in

track 2, it's a little too repetitive ! You can hear a strange voice for a

moment (track 3). "Z. Melody" is a simple track full of samples. Then you have

a pretty good track (4). "Shredder" uses very luminous sounds. Track 7 is very

bad compared to the stuff of the others, disappointing ! The CD ends with a

good track, you can listen to panpipes ! The melody had been written for a

long time !

HolyMen is a Nitzhonot producer, so his tracks can be compared to luminus ones.

But the sounds used here are more soft. Some of you prefer probably SUN

Project, Son Kite...

It's really different ! If you hate at all melodies, don't buy it ! To my mind,

all tracks are not bad but... "Beavis In The Haze" is certainly the best.

Sometimes, the effects show a sense of humour !

I find it a bit commercial, I wonder if it's really psytrance or simply trance

!! After listening to it several times (around 3 times ! ), I'm felt tired of

his tracks ! Sometimes, it seems to be kids music !! The main problem is that

we have the feeling Holly S. has written his tracks too fast !!

So I give it only 4.5/10 !

This is without a doubt a bad release and effort. . Not only this is bad

uplifting or melodic trance its downright annoying. I hope that he gets the

message that listeners are indeed more sophisticated and outputs more quality

releases. So in short, bad, bad song structures, bad composition, bad melody,

ultracheap effects, this is just the C4 for all bad releases.

When i first heard it at a party i thought it was really speciall. Later on

when i got i listened to it for a while and now i think its geting worse and

worse. It is a bit commercial. And im sure you will get tired of the bassline

pretty fast.

For me holly men stinks And sucks. From the projects name till the projects

music.

I think this guy was trying to make trance less repetitive and full of melodic

crapp, which in essensce is not trance.

Viva el trance psicodelico minimalista!!!!!

Mueran proyectos chafas como holy men.

Impossible to dj this music without coming out from the party with tomatoes up

the head.

Stop making music!!!!!!!

This CD is a joke. I fucking laughed my head off when I heard it... this is

music for little children age 5 to 7.

 

1/10. I give 1 just because Sony is so stupid to release it...

It's BALAGAAAAAN. This cd makes me jump everywhere...i suffer so much while

hearing that SHIT.

 

But Holyman is an honnest guy...he asked the graphic guy to make a cover that

looks like his music....see by yourself. If u like the cover u'll like the

music. (the opposite is true)

not good.....I acutally thought this guy might amount to something. Abra

Kadabra and Micro Play from Intelligence Genetics were really good tracks....I

guess that is all Holymen had in him.

oh, I forgot: 2/10 (only because I own some old tracks that aren't bad and I

have some leftover respect for the poor guy)

DISCLAIMER! I never bought this album! I listened to it at a friends place and

my screams of horror and pain were heard all across Toronto! Let me fire up

the thesaurus to give u a better idea of my opinion. Shit = garbage, nonsense,

gobbledygook, waffle, drivel, mumbo-jumbo, crap, flannel, rubbish, refuse,

debris, litter, waste, junk, twaddle, balderdash, baloney, bunkum, hogwash.

Shit = nithzonot, eyal barkan, holy men. Please do not buy this album! 2

reasons - you get to keep your sanity and we discourage the production of such

complete SHIT. Holy men, by unanimous decision we find you guilty of

premeditated murder of the wonderful goa sound, sentenced to immediate

execution by forced listening to your own albums! To be consistent with the

album name i give it a 4. OUT OF 4000! Or 0.01/10. For the luck the guy must

have to ever get this released! - Raven
