Review

 

#1 Start up track . Floating vocal samples and

effects upon a fast bassline . Nothing special,

but nice warm up.

 

#2 Floating track . Here the bassline slows down,

and the synth layer do a strange work : on a hand,

they seem to push the song to a psy dimension,

with a thrilling pattern , but on the other hand

vocal samples and keyboard sounds introduce

some "house" feelings .

 

#3 This track is deviant. If you like also heavy

metal this is an amazing surprise, but if you

didn't like Ozzy Osbourne in your teens, this

will just suck.

Rainy intro, and then in a very heavy metal style,

an electric guitar riff explodes, and the the whole

track is a continuos play beetween the powerful

bassline and the electric guitars ... if you like the style,

this is a great track

 

#4 Boring track. Very usual goa production, with

floating synth and continuous bassline .. samples

and keyboard fields try to create some lush , but

the feeling is just of deja-vu.

 

#5 The drumkit and bass layers here are goa, but

some samples and keyboard patterns really sound

house ... maybe it's an experiment, but it's just

boring.

 

#6 Another usual goa production. The bassline. The

floating synths. The boredom .

 

#7 Nice vocal sample but the production of the first

part of the track is just boring. Instead at 4:40 enters

a break where a strange guitar riff mixes with the

vocal sample ... it's a good idea they could have developed

during the final part of the song, but they drop it after

some seconds to return to the usual bassline/bzzwarp

bzwaarp synth , what a pity ...

 

#8 They took track #6 , added some bongos and

a guitar riff with a strange 70s flavour.

 

#9 Ambient track. Relaxing keyboard layers with some

female vocals in Enigma' s style, and some chill-out

patterns. Nice and unexpected.

 

#10 Electric guitars and trance layers. Not

adrenalinic like #3, and it features

some thrilling and atmospheric keyboard works ...

this could have been a

nice bgm for a videogame

 

Rate

 

I love track #3, and like track #9 .

I found the rest of the album too boring.

Not that the tracks are bad,

but the deja-vu is really high, and some

samples or guitar arrangements aren't

enough to hide the lack of worthly

ideas.

I'd give this track 6/10 for having a few good tracks (Dance of the witches is excellent though) and being different. Some of the later tracks are a bit boring and repetitive however. I'm not one to like heavy metal but I like any psy adaption of it (e.g. S.U.N. Project or Dark Psy stuff)
