Dusk-The New Land (2023)

 


Tracklist:

1.Fall and Rise 

2.Behind My Shadow

3.Insane   

4.The Evil Hands

5.Generation (2023 remastered version)


DUSK, display their latest masterpiece, the EP The New Land, has five new tracks, featuring intense compositions like "Fall and Rise" "Behind My Shadow" "Insane" "The Evil Hands" and "Generation" showcases the band's evolution since its inception in 2001.

The beginning of the EP "Fall and Rise" directly great iconic names back to my head like Motörhead, Pantera or Malignant Tumour because their music is a fusion of various metal subgenres heavy , groove , thrash,death n roll…but I advise you to pay attention to the great opportunity of  DUSK and the big advantage of the band the pretty awesome guitar solos of Lamine who fit perfectly with the rhythm guitar with never ending drumming following continuous tempo. "Behind My Shadow" begins with adownside tempo, and then combines groove, thrash and heavy metal influences. Sometimes very fast, they are able to slow down the rhythm by adding more heaviness to their music during certain passages. The riffs take up a lot of space and they can hardly deny the Dimebag Darrell influences. Behind My Shadow is particularly intense and well done. It’s heavy with a very strong 90s vibe.

"Insane" it describes DUSK and this is the perfect thing on this EP this is the monster kill of The New Land and the last two songs are "The Evil Hands" and "Generation"

In any case, you should have or try to listen The New Land and put it in your collection.

Hyde-Ardwena (2023)

 


Label:Malpermesita Records

Tracklist:

1.Doom Over Sabis            

2.Hammer of Doom   

3.One                 

4.Nadir     

5.Vidlua             

6.Lay of Winter           

7.Ardwena

This release comes via Malpermesita Records. Ardwena has seven new tracks from Hyde with album art that really fits the content and feel of the album

The opening "Doom Over Sabis" first clearly leaves black metal in control with the guitar riffs and horrific and dark vocals a dose of black metal by the rules of the art, but soon melodic doom takes over…. In addition, the interaction between the male and female voices offers a great performance but not too much because as soon as this dose of doom with clean vocals in the opera-choral style becomes immediately boring than expected and makes us forget the perfect black metal intro, particularly on the downside. of the tempo it goes out of the circuit its break in rhythm. In''Hammer Of Doom'', they manage to switch more between genres but with each intro of almost all the album is pleasant like "One" but for the mixture of genres it can be just passable in any case you can appreciate it or not for example "One" is 50/50, a perfect intro followed by a sudden tiring and boring tempo drop and then a great guitar solo.

"Nadir" his summary, describes and schematizes Hyde. "Vidlua" and "Lay of Winter" these are the two masterpieces of this album because I underestimated Ardwena a lot before listening to these two titles, and to conclude Ardwena riff and technical and heavy guitar solos accompanied by pleasant ,soft and icy feminine vocals which take you on a journey into the full atmosphere of Hyde
