Disease
The Stream Of Disillusion

The introduction is necessary this time. Not like the garish symphonic-horror clutter of symphonic black, not like the handful of seconds of noises that some bands who are quite full of themselves sometimes peddle us. No, it's a true initiation rite, an entry test. "If you can endure this 'Different Suns,' you can continue listening to us fully to the end" the band seems to tell us. The Disease. The cyclical and hypnotic drumming accompanies a liquid guitar riff that then becomes anxious and intermittently distorted. A very interesting calling card, imagine the rest.

Almost an hour of music played from the heart, emotional swings guaranteed, not so much from the singer's voice, which is still good considering it has to navigate between the despair of hardcore and harsh vocals with clean passages, but from a chameleon-like instrumental base that has so much to say. Not everyone is aware of their capabilities and able to encapsulate everything in songs of a non-prohibitive length. Having a creative drummer who you hear playing in one way at this moment and the next instant inserts some touch that escapes the songs from staticity is not for everyone, much less exploiting it. The middle part of "Enter the wave" speaks louder than a thousand words, the longest piece of the lot that mixes jazz breaks with guitars snatched from the most original French black and shortly after the Wah wah. Then here comes the growl already bursting in. Then that bass, reminiscent of De Farfalla of the historic Opeth's early albums, is honestly a point in favor of the band. "For my deliverance" is the most immediate piece, with its long and torrential solo and a rhythm that the foot will try in vain to keep up with. The melodic tail of the rocky "In This Morning" leads us melancholically towards the cover of "Empty" by Anathema, which was not needed... only because they have already found their great personality!!! The cover is nonetheless in Disease style.

The album is available for free download here, but I truly believe that in this case, the original is a must. Rising stars, give them a record label!
