A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

Grá – Väsen

Info

Well produced, mid-90ies-inspired Black Metal from Sweden. The warm guitar tone really accentuates the catchy-thrash breakdowns, which nicely break up classic-90ies-Mayhem/Emperor-styled verses: hypnotic arrangements of 16th notes, darkened with slow moving chord progressions. Songs are extremely well written with smooth transitions and comfortable dynamics…the battery is tight with appropriate speed for the songwriting…this album groves. The bass tone is amazing and the playing deserved this Cynic-like-sound. The vocals sometimes remind me of Emperor meets Keep of Kalessin, but, there’s some tastefully, experimental flurries from time to time. This is a modern album with well-proportioned-touches of unique synth sounds (maybe like 20% of the album)…damn…this album grooves… (Orpheus)
