Label: Limited Access Records Release: June 6 2005 By: Stormlord Rating: 8.5/10 Time: 75:14 Style: Progressive Death Metal Sometimes there are musical surprises! Talking about newcomer bands, it is good to see, if they don’t play like thousands of others but create some independent and headstrong mixture of sounds. I hope the three musicians are not angry with me if names like Opeth or Disillusion come to my mind because of their complex and very long compositions. You need quite long time to get into the songs of Eerie Sphere. The songs are really convoluted and ask for some concentration as well as staying power. This is no easy listening stuff which is adequate for music in the background! There are a lot of time changes, the guitars are performed with virtuosity and sometimes weird melodies are created. The rhythm section is doing the same way and that means a lot of variety. One or another melody could have been written by above mentioned progressive death metal gods Opeth, but the Damnation/Deliverance album-double seems to be not the worst influence I assume. The vocals are also manifold, I had to get used to the clear voice in the beginning, but it fits the complete works perfectly. Talking about various speed in music, DEVIATED PRESENCE are doing well in all variations and they can satisfy with both slow songs like the relaxed entitled Rest and fast compositions, just listen to Failures. The monster track Storm sounds like Lacrimosa in the last part, and so the mood often changes, it’s a contrast bath of feelings All songs are longer than 6 minutes, but DEVIATED PRESENCE are able to stay suspenseful all the time, everything seems to fit in, technical parts and well-sounding passages go together, deep growled vocals harmonise with clear voice. In short: a felicitous album with a lot of surprisingly moments. |
