МУЗИКА

The fifth full-length studio album by russian Progressive Melodic Thrash/Death Metal band.
…You are again in the library – calm atmosphere, favorite books on mathematics, philosophy, astronomy and your brain gradually starts to relax and unbalance… And, suddenly huge Metal Thrash-Death roller levels everything on its way at a furious pace, and only from the cabin the hellish shout of the granny sounds: “Give way!”
It's impossible to solve the hard tangle of high-speed styles: Symphonic, Melodic, Progressive, Alternative, Thrash, Melodic Death Metal! Reinforce-concrete drum and bass mixture is firmly intertwined with powerful guitar passages, aggressive and angry vocal pierces into modern and symphonic keys, and mind-blowing dynamic solos will just unbalance your mind!
The album will gladden the fans of such bands as Children Of Bodom, Soilwork, Mercenary, Degradead, Dark Tranquillity, and In Flames!

The debut and only full-length album by Russian Symphonic Black Metal band.
Dryados's music is fairly different to any other band you'll ever hear. The music tends to change all the time. All instruments are balanced well and you can hear everything perfectly. The keyboards on songs like "Who's Your God Now" and "Phantasm" will make you happy. They are so haunting but so melodic as well. The drums are fast-paced and are there for the support of the keyboards to create an epic atmosphere. The vocals are a different thing though. They're the most interesting thing.The vocalist sings so well. Dryados loves creating melodies at the start of the songs and never repeating them at all. It's a trick to get listeners to listen to tracks over and over. Different mixture of vocals are here as well which spice things up for the listener. The lyrics deserve a mention as well. They're about how corrupt people are these days. They're worth reading.
There is no female vocals nor orchestral vocals. This is a must purchase album to any person who thinks bands like Limbonic Art or Emperor has mastered Symphonic Black Metal - yet again you'll probably avoid it since you know you'll be proven wrong! Romantic Sympho Black Metal for all fans of genre!!

Official release of the debut full-length album by Italian Progressive Death Metal band.
Italy's well known for its crusing Death Metal scene and over the top Technical wizardry. Duality is yet another great exemple of the quality bands available in this great part of the world. Born out of a love of old/new school Progressive Death Metal, classical strings and Jazz improvisation, Duality have managed to somehow make all of those vibes work cohesively on their debut full length.
"Elektron" was released independently by Duality in 2015, but PRC Music has officially released album next year.
The quality and musicianship of Duality is definitely up to par and definitely above average on a wider scale. Structurally there’s a foundation of modern Technical Death Metal a la Obscura and The Faceless; and if that were all that the band had to offer, it’d still make for a pretty good album. Tracks like “Six Years Locked Clock”, “Azure” and “Along the Crack” all have threads of respectable rage, but it’s the sharp left turns throughout that rage that truly excels "Elektron" forward. Throbbing riffs give way unexpectedly to the singular serenity of chamber music and/or the kind of Jazzy guitar bounce typically heard on your local public radio station on a Saturday night. Duality also are keen on the kind of dissonant note juxtaposition made famous by the likes of Atheist and Voivod, which when matched against these more serene moments creates a beautifully discordant cacophony
Deploying so many varying styles and influences into a traditionally rigid song structure could easily come across as shticky or forced, but it never feels unnatural. “Hanged on a Ray of Light” is a fantastic example of this feat, with its sweeping violin runs and percussive shuffle anchoring islands of guitar harmonies and venomous vocal spew.
Mixing Technical Death Metal with Jazz and Progressive music is nothing new in this world but the general feel and the absolutely amazing musical arrangements makes this band a solid contender to the throne left vacant since the good old days of Atheist, Cynic and Death. Top notch production, awesome album cover and artwork... you absolutely need this!!
Monstrous old school Technical Death Metal for fans of: Death, Cynic and Atheist!!

The third full-length album by Belgian Neoclassical Power Metal band.
A very solid album of Neoclassical Power Metal that doesn't overdo its technical theatrics. Everything feels "just right". Iron Mask seems to be a revolving door when it comes to band members, as new musicians come and go, similar to Avantasia, but in this case the rotation probably isn’t part of an artistic vision. Luckily, the creative juices all reside in Dushan Petrossi who, like Tobias Sammet, writes all the music and determines the direction of each album. "Shadow Of The Red Baron" is the successor to the excellent, if not near perfect "Hordes Of The Brave", and this is a great album too.
One of the band’s strengths is in vocalist Goetz “Valhalla Jr.” Mohr, a singer who occupies a very polar opposite to the 80s-style and at times upbeat Neoclassical riffing that permeates the album so tirelessly. He’s not guttural, per se, but he has a somewhat smoky, deep voice that he projects loudly and confidently, while maintaining clarity. Oliver Hartmann chimes in, too, and takes the lead on the song "Dreams", which seems to have been written just for him because his voice is just so strikingly similar to Jorn Lande’s that one would be hard pressed to differentiate the two.
Chief songwriter and guitar virtuoso Dushan Petrossi’s particular focus this time was to create superb songs first and foremost where the excellent musicianship only lift the music to an even higher level. With such a strong vocal presence Petrossi counters with equally strong songwriting. One tendency in Neoclassical Power Metal is to over-embellish solos into technical showcases that rarely fit comfortably into the musical direction of the song, but Petrossi has a talent for making the incorporation tasteful. Not one moment he drifted off into solo land just to showboat his skills.
“Shadow Of The Red Baron” is 11 tracks of melodic Neo-classical Metal yet is accessible enough for fans of Traditional Metal and Power/Symphonic Metal too. A number of traditional German Speed Metal fans who like a streamlined, Gamma Ray approach to songwriting could also be roped in by an album like this. We already knew that Petrossi is able to write catchy and melodic song material and this album proves this statement more than any of its predecessors! Don't be scared off by the Neo-Classical tag that undoubtedly hangs around Dushan Petrossi's neck if you're not really into the genre. There's enough material on "Shadow Of The Red Baron" that can keep any Melodic Hard Rock and Metal fan going for a while!!

Re-release of the third full-length album by French Atmospheric Death Metal band.
Great Dane Records seem to be getting started by signing a bunch of under-the-radar bands and reissuing their most recent albums in nice, slick new packages with some real promotion behind them. Dylath-Leen are hyped as "atmospheric" Death Metal, but this is pretty damned aggressive for that label. In this instance, "atmospheric" seems to mean they throw in some keyboards here and there. This album is mostly propulsive Death Metal riffing with a bit more melody that is standard. The vocals are iffy, as too often they slip over into a monotone scream that is a bit ‘coreish for my tastes.
"Cabale" follows the bands 2008 release "Semion" and whilst the wait has been far too long the result is well worth it.
From the opening track "Never Rising Sun" the tone is set for an all out assault on the senses with Kathy’s incredibly powerful vocals burning a hole straight between the listeners ears. However, the band don’t rely solely on the female vocal angle with guitarist Igor also sharing duties on many of the tracks, which adds a deeper more malevolent feel, none more so than on "Silent Land".
Categorising Dylath-Leens’s musical style is not easy. Whilst they do draw from the Extreme/Death Metal corner, they have the vision and talent to experiment and push the boundaries further than many other bands in that genre. Having said that, if you’re expecting ballads you will be disappointed, but if you want to listen to a refreshingly different band that based on this release are definitely on the way up then give this CD a go!

The second full-length studio album by Czech Power Metal band.
When producer Roland Grapow (once an axeman of both Helloween and Masterplan) was hired for the production of this album, he probably knew what he got himself into. From this end, he actually landed on a potential gold mine of talents. Along with his clean and fine work on the production, Eagleheart showed that their name, besides being a song of Stratovarius, will eventually be some day known and spoken about by many.
Drawing its influences and sharing similarities with Rhapsody Of Fire, Masterplan, Gamma Ray, Helloween, Yngwie Malmsteen and Kamelot, this is a force to be acquainted with. Even though that the rain of Euro Power Metal bands dragged the notion of swarms filled with too many clichés, Eagleheart has its own advantages. They do have aspects that would display the common melodic choruses, same kind of riffs and undying speed for instance, but there is more than that. "Dreamtherapy" has a bit than a portion of maturity.
Right by the side of the normalities of the subgenre, the material offers time signature breaks of beats, articulate Neo-Classical solos of high standards, a rather diverse line of rhythms and a little more than the traditional set of vocals. Don't be wrong, Eagleheart is a Power Metal being, and it showed alliance to the characteristics especially when keeping the flow and somewhat accessibility of their tracks. However, what spiced up their album is that touch of maturity and a heavier approach in comparison to their debut.
"Dreamtherapy" is an extremely strong and influential album. Eagleheart has produced a gem with this one, and it is the complete package of excellent musicianship and songwriting. There isn’t a weak track on this album, and it should stand out for quite some time. This album is a must for every Metalhead that respects the genre!
The album features guest vocals and guitar solos by Roland Grapow (Masterplan, ex- Helloween)!!

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary American Rock band.
The band's first album with guitarist Joe Walsh, who had replaced founding member Bernie Leadon, who had given the band much of its country flavour, and the last to feature founding bassist Randy Meisner. The album cover features a photograph of the Beverly Hills Hotel, taken by David Alexander.
The Eagles took 18 months between their fourth and fifth albums, reportedly spending eight months in the studio recording "Hotel California". As a result, the album marks a major leap for the Eagles from their earlier work, as well as a stylistic shift toward Mainstream Rock. An even more important aspect, however, is the emergence of Don Henley as the band's dominant voice, both as a singer and a lyricist. On the six songs to which he contributes, Henley sketches a thematic statement that begins by using California as a metaphor for a dark, surreal world of dissipation; comments on the ephemeral nature of success and the attraction of excess; branches out into romantic disappointment; and finally sketches a broad, pessimistic history of America that borders on nihilism. Of course, the lyrics kick in some time after one has appreciated the album's music, which marks a peak in the Eagles' playing.
Early on, the band couldn't rock convincingly, but the rhythm section of Henley and Meisner has finally solidified, and the electric guitar work of Don Felder and Joe Walsh has arena-rock heft. In the early part of their career, the Eagles never seemed to get a sound big enough for their ambitions; after changes in producer and personnel, as well as a noticeable growth in creativity, "Hotel California" unveiled what seemed almost like a whole new band. It was a band that could be bombastic, but also one that made music worthy of the later tag of "Classic Rock," music appropriate for the arenas and stadiums the band was playing. The result was the Eagles' biggest-selling regular album release, and one of the most successful Rock albums ever.
"Hotel California" was an immediate critical and commercial success, topping the US Billboard 200 chart. At the 20th Grammy Awards, the title track won Record of the Year, and "New Kid in Town" won Best Arrangement for Voices. The album was also nominated for Album of the Year but lost to Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" (1977). Three Singles were released from the album, with the title track and "New Kid in Town" topping the Billboard Hot 100 and "Life in the Fast Lane" reaching No. 11.
"Hotel California" is one of the best-selling albums of all time. It has been certified 26× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the US, and has sold over 32 million units worldwide, making it the band's second best-selling album after "Their Greatest Hits" (1971–1975) (1976). Ranked by various publications as one of the greatest albums of all time, it was placed at number 37 on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" in 2003 and 2012, re-positioned to number 118 in the 2020 edition. The band played the album in its entirety during the Hotel California 2020 Tour.

The second full-length album Ukrainian old school Brutal Death Metal band.
Rather ancient band Eclipse (the first mention of it belong to the beginning of 90s) undertook to please fans of juicy meat - real old school Brutal Death Metal without the slightest hint of fashion trend. Honed to perfection riffs with which our eardrums familiar for two decades; structures of compositions compiled in way, as for the first approach "Grind, Suffer, Dreams" listens as if it's not the first year in your colleciton!
A truly classic Death Metal in the American style, in vein of Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse! This guys are masters, both in terms of technology (perform all very skillfully and clearly) and in terms of the composer's talent: they compose a whale catchy cool riffs and typically Brutal Death vocal melodies. Music perfectly written, reminds by the sound the best work Morbid Angel and brutality on the part of becomes flush with the Cannibal Corpse!
Album contains 9 original tracks + cover versions of Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel and Slayer!!
Monsters are back!!!

The second album by Czech Progressive Death Metal band.
Technical/Avant-garde Metal band of guitarist Pavel Jerabek and singer Martin Brnovjak (ex-Absurd Conflict) released new six songs mini-album.
The album starts with familiar Edain stylings, which include Avant-gardish, Dark Heavy Metal and Progressive alteration. The guitar and bass works conjure up quite an artistic, antiquated feel. It simply feels archaic yet timeless. The band isn't very heavy at its heaviest, but they sound raw in a live way. However, the vocals are considerably raw, compared to anything else; non-melodic and unvarying brawling. The song is rather multidimensional, in a good way, but then comes a Jazz break and it just happens to be a totally irrelevant one.
Besides the complex and sometimes longer tracks combining anything from Death Metal aggression through complicated rhythms to almost Fusion elements and lyrics dealing with the heritage of ancient philosophy, vis-à-vis present day issues of political economy, there are also two experimental instrumental tracks that the guitarists arranged from the drum jam and solo, respectively. The instrumentalists' performances are great. They are skilled and they can switch between the music styles well!
