review by Sara "Shadow Lady" De Vita____
A
complex album, in full Meshuggah’style!
Self
repeating, sometimes excessively redundant, that numbs the ear with
promises of fierce sound evil.
A
single, 21minutes-long song, that seems to be more a sort of hors
d’oeuvre to the next album, more than a work per
se.
Cured
in riffs and cadenced rhythms, “I” is a song with strong emotional
impact: heterogeneous sounds that develop in extremely complex
evolutions and contaminations.
It
must be said that “I” is not coming any close to “Sickening” or
“Future Breathe Machine”, yet is the harbinger of future proposal of
undoubtful success.
The
band celebrates a return to the almost unnatural technique of Chaosphere,
managing to merge with mastery a relatively more melodic sound that
resembles the fantastic Destroy Erase Improve.
All
in all, “I” represents a hybrid between the technical capabilities
of a band that always bet on the precision of their performances and the
emotional influence that can be given by modulated melodic incursions.
Plays
of bass ’n guitar create a dark mosaic of notes glued to each other by
an unfailing cement: Jens Kidman’s voice.
We
will be watching for the next moves of a band that never failed.
rating: 7.5/10
