Kristendom - Awakening The Chaos



Kristendom... certainly not a moniker that rings a bell in your mind i guess!lol they are from France and play Death Metal...Awakening the Chaos is their 3rd or fourth album and i think it is their best! if you like it old school or from the 90's, then you'll be on cloud nine! ah ah! it's really groovy and i reckon it's a bit in the vein of six feet under at times from that regard, however, Kristendom's music is far more elborate and entertaining, with layers of synth used here and there to strengthen the feeling of darkness. No revolution here, ...granted.., but who cares?! these lads know their trade for sure, and that's enough for me! enjoy!

We're reaching my last plays in here now with only a few days to go before i leave for good...Fiend Without a Face is a band i have never played and yet they are certainly one i like very much... the vocalist has something of jello biafra from Dead Kennedys which is just awesome! i don't know about you but i grew up with that kind of sound (and also classical music...Tchaikovsky, Bach & Wagner!) and it always bring tons of memories everytime i spin this one =) music wise it's just rockabilly, but they have a very cool way of playing it, horror-style-B-movie like!...some influences from the misfits perhaps ...or aping another band called zombies from outter space (well some stuff like that, can't remember! ah ah ) ... whatever, excellent album, warmly advised! enjoy =D

HEAD OF DAVID - White Elephant 1989



What if you take a band like The Doors, when completely spaced out of course, and drown them into a reverating and throbbing enveloppe....well you might get something sounding somewhat like Head of David! If you don't like experimental...the kind that make you feel like you're too strung out to grasp the world around you...then i would suggest your leaving the room in a hurry!^^... however for all those still in here, and wondering what's gonna blow outta their speakers... let me give you a clue... the spirit of R'n'R might be what some call it! ah ah! enjoy!

Yargos - To Be Or Not To Be (2005)



Perhaps you already know Yargos but if you don't i highly advise you to lend an ear to that one! being no fan of prog metal i can tell you that they are definitely worth a shot ... everything in this album is great, the vox, the melodies, the production ... here you have it all...quality and quantity, cause the album reaches above 1 hour of running time, which is quite a lot (...well i mean quite a lot compared to the grindcore stuff i listen to! ah ah!)... and everything is pefectly balanced, no instrument encroach on any other, all fits perfectly in its place ... it's not that much violent but it definitely rocks! well...not much to add, this is just brilliant! enjoy!

Carnarium - Constelaciones De Requiems 2002



How about turning Barrocco for a short while...don't worry, just the time to travel back to the Renaissance period and meet that Spanish band called Carnarium! =) a pretty good band actually, they have female vox in the style of Elend's Les Tenebres du Dehors [The outter darkness] ...and perhaps even better performed! but what i like most is the brutal vox they use, in the best DM fashion! yummie! very guttural and cavernous growls with sad and creepy ambiances a la craddle of filth, typical of the BM line! Most of the songs are pretty cool, hovering between a fine blend of sweetness and agression! in that regard, i think this band has something of Septic Flesh, that is they use several simple melodic lines weaved together into a more intricate pattern. Well, a really interesting band picking a lot of different elements from various metal style and combining them in a unique way ...well worth checkin' out IMHO!^^ \m/

강인오 (Ino Kang) - My World 2005



강인오 is a guitar player i discovered rather recently while trawling the web for something on joe satriani! ^^ and actually style-wise he's quite reminicent of good old statch. Not over technical (i mean by that no indulging in hyper speed playing) but definitely under the same sway of rock/blue influence, whether we consider his sound or the way he plays (rhythm wise). This is his first album and though it's certainly not going to revolutionize anything, the album is really cool and funky, and it will definitely make you have a good time for 3/4 of an hour! enjoy!

1. Confusions
2. My World
3. Into The Dreams
4. As The Leaves
5. Missing You
