This isn't an album that should fit on our metal site, but the Swedish singer/songwriter Martin Rubashov's debut album "The Watcher of the Skies" is a pop-rock acoustic product that is very personal and naked. It's like a healing balm to your thorn metal ears. Martin has a history in the Swedish metal band 'Mustasch' and this is so far from that sound as it can be. Martin is also known in Sweden as "Bollnäs-Martin" on the radio channel Bandit Rock. I have this album in my car and I find it quite enjoyable to have Martins calm voice in my speakers when I drive and my blood pressure stays in a low level despite the high tempo in the traffic outside. I don't think our black metal or thrash metal fans will find this disc worth any attention. If you want something soft and melodic with sensitive guitars and high quality vocals, I can recommend this disc. Pastoral careful music or liniment for the lost souls of metal. It's nice - in proper doses, but in the long run do I prefer the electric hard rock with screaming guitars... |
