OFFICIUM TRISTE.-'REASON'-CD 2004-5 TRACKS

These guys are extremely DOOM metal,Yezz,really DOOM metal.They're sounded to far as the old MY DYING BRIDE,going to the modern side of NOVEMBERS DOOM. All tracks are interesting,with great musical work,heaviness and slowly to next dead ! ! !The 5 tracks are oriented to punished and depression.The best of this CD is the musically Quality of the members,all them was playin' as well their instruments. I dislike the depression but still like some tracks such as 'IN POWRING RAM' or 'A FLOWER IN DECAY'.This product is interesting to all followers of ANATHEMA, NOVEMBERS DOOM or old MY DYING BRIDE. ................................................................. 7.5/10

OF INFINITY.-‘THE ESSENCE OF INFINITY’-PROMO CD 2004-3 TRAX-USA.-

the gothic scene has broke-up the close circle through of metal. In fact I think that they are surprised with tons of bands like TRISTANIA, LACUNA COIL, OPETH, LACRIMOSA and others. These bands show Us How this stuff has gained fans and is more strong than ever. talkin’ about OF INFINITY, I must to add that band have a great vocals quality, good musical technic, anyway, sometimes their soft sound is bored. The band is taken the best gothic influences mixed with great status, death metal feelin’. Following the same way of IN FLAMES and some bands above mentioned. The production & sound is ok. If you’re looking for Gothic/death/doom with female vocals, this promo is for you!!!..............................................7/10

‘HUMANAVIRUS’ is the best death metal album of present year that I’ve heard come on BRAZIL.

OLD BLACK MAJESTIC:’PROMO CD-R 2005-COLOMBIA-3 TRACKS: (NEW REVIEW)
So here it is!!! The new amazing band from COLOMBIA. Really I think so!!! Because the musical arrangements are made for the success but at the time they’re sounded very classical black metal too!!! Very well done, with extremely rhythm changes, breaks up to down, at time they’re sounding like others classic NORSE bands at the 90’s years as GORGOROTH also they have extremely blackened vocals work. Which keep it dark and with incredible atmosphere besides. All of this, it’s done in fellowship with a fantastic musical tunes. So, when you get it, you’ll find out some destructive tracks which you’ll enjoy it until death!!! Great stuff…………………………………….7.2/10

OBSKURE: ‘’ From who stopped dreaming’’-CD-R-BRAZIL:(NEW REVIEW)
Obskure is a band from Brazil, that play a melodic death metal, well structured, my friend Slanderer sent me their fifth demo after the full lenght OVERCASTING, well this demo start with a brief intro after come CHRISTIAN SOVEREIGN a song with almost 4 minutes of good death metal with a good intro with synths and good riff in guitar a bit slow but heavy riff with good guttural voice so dark and deep and after some changes in the guitar riff mid tempo and some changes in the voice too. I like the guttural voice, some keyboards arrangement make a good song for me the best song of this demo is INSIDE another brief intro called inside, I don’t know why but this intro make me remember some scene to zenobite movie hell raiser, great to another song called FROM ONE WHO STOPPED DREAMING, well this song after the intro start with good riff in guitar, mid tempo with a good drums a faster double bass, some keys arrangements too but to me the best song in this demo is Christian sovereign for more info you can write to obskure.br@gmail.com or more info check it out at the web site www.obskure.zip.net
