Style: Melodic Death Metal
Release date: 28 February, 2014
Playing time: 54:33
 


Melodic technical death metal with a progressive touch and a portion of metalcore that is what this German band delivers. The production of the album is perfect and well balanced. Especially the keyboard in combination with the guitar pieces see to it that the entire album sounds very melodic and is rather easy to listen to.

The band hasn't re-invent the wheel, but finds the musical inspiration in bands like Dark Tranquility, Children of Bodom, In Flames and especially Scar Symmetry. Fans of this band have to take a listen. Does this German band do something special? That question has to be answered with no, sure, it all sounds fine, but there already other bands in this genre that I appreciate more, but that's just my opinion.

You should just take a listen and if you are a fan of Scar Symmetry, you will like this band also.
