In this morning's gray, gloomy and sad at the end of February, I am going to listen and comment on a mini-cd (alas, only 3 pieces) self, a band that formed in the Olbia Sassari in the not too distant 2005. These are the Asuras, Sardinian act, whose sound is defined as "melanchonic black & death metal." You can then already guess from the first track "Requiem for My Warriors," what goes on my CD player: song dall'incedere growling in the nostalgic song, with rhythms that alternate between fast lashes (full symphonic black style) breakers and meditative, with poignant orchestral parts of the insert. The drumming is fast and accurate, as well as the guitar riffing (though a little 'subdued), as if to balance the quiet and peacefulness of the keyboards, real predominant elements of this work. Having completed this track, I went back to listen to the intro: the "chorus" (but I do not know well how to define it), I recalled the typical Sardinian folk songs, as if to put in a light vein island folk ensemble. The second track "Escape from Death" opens with a delicate arpeggio accompanied a bass all played as if released from an album of old Metallica: simple lens arrangements that leave a few seconds of silence between notes and the other, the singing is always growl, while the keyboards continue to characterize the sound personality of us, revealing a more melodic vein (and, dare I say a little 'progressive) of this young band. The closing "Only Hate" is divided into three parts: the first is characterized by a fast and furious pace, the second is more melodic (see previous track), while the third takes up the furious pace of the beginning. And with this track closes the CD demo of the sextet Sardinian song very experimental but with a potential hidden that can lead them very far, especially if our fail to give greater balance to the dualism guitar / keyboards (for now moved to a more extensive use of keys but significant Psycho). We just have to wait for a new job, hoping it will be a bit 'longer and even better product, so you can give a more in depth. We are still on track. (Samantha Pigot)
