This one started off kind of funky, but when
I heard the metal kick in.... cool. Ever
Since is a melodic dark metal six-piece from the delightful lands
of Switzerland.... thus resulting in delightful metal. "Fight
the Elements" is more the less a progressive, gothic, slightly
doom-laden metal experience which ignites the usage of clean and black/death
vocals alongside twin-guitar melodies, melancholic keyboard atmospheres,
and extremely successive and technical percussion. While Ever Since
are much like other darker rock/metal bands (Mysterium, Evemaster,
Dead Beginners, etc...), they still maintain distinction and definitely
have at least, my attention and should probably get a lot of other
peoples' attention in the near future. My favorite track on this release
is "Back To Life" mainly because of the very catchy rhythms,
twin-guitar medleys, maniacal vox and epic atmosphere. This song IMO
is their most successful thus far and also describes the album best.
I'm very fond of what I hear, even though a slightly greater use of
the dual-guitar melodies could be used throughout. Remember Ever Since,
I have a feeling they'll turn a lot of heads... Rating: 81 Reviewed By: Thomas Mitchell |
