the creepiness and minimalism carry on taking a longer form, on "rain", which is a twisting doomy number with a surreal edge. the opening "who wants to live" is a creepy minimalistic technical thrasher clinging between coroner's "mental vortex" and mekong delta's "caleidoscope", and is the highlight.

"lost in the atmosphere" arrives five years later and sees the guys having grown as musicians playing capable semi-technical thrash of the classic school. the closing "your damned name" is another slower clumsy number which doesn't really do the album justice which, despite the wide variety, has more than just a few cool moments to capture the listener's attention. eternity" is a quiet peaceful ballad, with good clean vocal performance, as opposed to the brutal semi-death shouts accompanying the other material. "having the right" is a somewhat awkward doomy composition lasting for almost 9-min, cancelled by the much shorter explosive "nomad". "risen by death" is direct bay-area thrash metal with a certain technical twist, followed by the more intense proto-death laced "breath of a gloom". more elaborate music comes on "tanks" which is 12-min of extreme thrash/proto-death shred with a couple of more complex sections. the surprises don't end here, though, as "madness celebration" provides very cool agressive technical thrash/death ala early invocator and "the guide for the fuckface beginners" is a nice tribute to the floridian school. "waltz" would be a surprise being gloomy doom with nothing technical offered whatsoever. the demo is good retro thrash metal which starts in the most ambitious way with the 12-min instrumental "death of a madman": a state-of-the-art affair seamlessly blending surreal abstract sections, twisted technical ones, and straight headbanging passages a masterpiece which could well stand on deathrow's "deception ignored", or end amen's "your last orison". This very obscure act is a fine addition to the russian metal scene. Copyright (c) 2007-2022 the thrash metal guideĠ-9 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
