Album Review On "The Obelisk"

"As much as there are elements brought in from black metal and beer-worshiping guitar onslaughts, at its core, it almost can’t help but be a thrash album."

A pretty sweet review of the album on the Scumfest Metal 666 blog. This guy seems to have gotten some things right that other reviews over looked. Like that fact that that the sound at the end of "Psilocybin" is PUKING, not coughing. CHEERS! READ IT.

Demo Review IN EXTREMIS France

These guys have some interesting things to say about our demo, like making comparisons to some mainstream bands that I never would have thought of, and don't necessarily agree with... stumble though this if you can!  

Bablefish Translation:

Odd the first access with this group of which the demonstration m' arrived in funny of small pocket, quasi a struck envelope 3 times of the logo of the group also successful qu' indecipherable. Inside, the cdr slipped with a flyer mentioning the titles of the songs, the musicos, and the contacts. That was recorded in California in their own room, but the result sounds in a very effective way. One 1st demonstration of 3 titles only but which propose despite everything 25 minutes of music. Is necessary to thus say that the style turns rather around the sludge, all in heaviness, but with fast super aggressive impulses which point regularly like hardened tits of desire. The voice makes EyeHateGod very, howled jusqu' with the rupture, with backing-vocals which m' made think of Corrosion off Conformity or of Down. And musicalement has these 3 groups there also, with certain fronts very groovesques like that at the beginning of " Meet Me At the Mountain" , very good piece (s' acts of the second) where delirious gratouillages with the guitar typified Dead Kennedys rub with soli

stoner typically. In results a very particular atmosphere, sometimes not far d' Today is The Day, the trick very yankee based on with dimensions apocalyptic and worrying one of the front. The first piece "Great Dishonor" is even more particular because it combines doom, sludge and progressive metal in vast a 10 minute old track when t' ace sometimes l' d' impression; to intend Tool to be made decarbonize l' onion by the grindfreaks of Soilent Green. The solos particularly are successful, they thread between the legs like crotales reducing

whereas rythmiquement when battery and low get going, me j' have l' d' impression; to have a pack of coyote which gambade under the sun burning of the desert. Very strange in any case. The 3rd title (Prayer off the Hunted) as for him is shortest but also more bourrin of the batch. Vocally j' like at all how that sounds on this one, with dimensions System off has Down not very welcome and of the front ultra banal qu' one would believe at all to hear the same group compared to the preceding tracks. Not certain thus that the group knows clearly where he wants to go, in any case d' after their very extravagant pace that can give something d' interesting… in l' future.

Bizarre le premier abord avec ce groupe dont la démo m'est parvenuvdans une drôle de pochette, quasi une enveloppe frappée 3 fois du logovdu groupe aussi réussi qu'indéchiffrable. Dedans, le cdr glissé avec un flyer mentionnant les titres des chansons, les musicos, et les contacts. Ça a été enregistré en Californie dans leur propre local, mais le résultat sonne de manière très efficace. Une 1ère démo de 3 titres seulement mais qui proposent malgré tout 25 minutes de musique. Faut dire que le style tourne plutôt autour du sludge, tout en lourdeur donc, mais avec des pulsions agressives super rapides qui pointent régulièrement comme des nichons durcis de désir. La voix fait très EyeHateGod, hurlée jusqu'à la rupture, avec des backing-vocals qui m'ont fait penser à du Corrosion of Conformity ou du Down. Et musicalement y a de ces 3 groupes également, avec certains riffs très groovesques comme celui au début de "Meet Me at the Mountain", très bon morceau (s'agit du second) où des gratouillages délirants à la guitare typés Dead Kennedys se frottent à des soli typiquement stoner. En résulte une atmosphère très particulière, parfois pas loin d'un Today is The Day, le truc très ricain basé sur le coté apocalyptique et inquiétant du riff. Le premier morceau "Great Dishonor" est encore plus particulier car il combine doom, sludge et métal progressif en une vaste piste de 10 minutes où t'as parfois l'impression d'entendre Tool se faire décalaminer l'oignon par les grindfreaks de Soilent

Green. Les solos sont particulièrement réussis, ils se faufilent entre les jambes comme des crotales fuyant alors que rythmiquement quand batterie et basse se mettent en branle, moi j'ai l'impression d'avoir une meute de coyote qui gambade sous le soleil brûlant du désert. Très étrange en tout cas. Le 3ème titre (Prayer of the Hunted) quant à lui est le plus court mais aussi le plus bourrin du lot. Vocalement j'aime pas du tout comment ça sonne sur celui-ci, avec un coté System of a Down pas très bienvenu et du riff ultra banal qu'on croirait pas du tout entendre le même groupe par rapport aux pistes précédentes. Pas certain donc que le groupe sache clairement où il veut aller, en tout cas d'après leur allure très extravagante ça peut donner quelque chose

d'intéressant... à l'avenir.
