Dyse S/T
Exile on Mainstream 23 March 2007
By Ryan Starr
When it comes to abstract and experimental music, its pretty easy to get my attention. But with Dyses self titled debut, I just cant get excited over it. The music is somewhere between System of a Down and Yob. And while I enjoy both of those bands, Dyse doesnt have the atmosphere of Yob, or the energy of SoaD. Everything is mid paced, so we dont get the creepy doom vibe or the hyper active vigor. What were left with is just middle of the road tempo that doesnt give us any sort or mood to feed off.
Another complaint I have is its simplicity. The riffs really only contain two or three chords each. And while I understand their music is more rhythm based, just a little more melody would go a long way towards making this release great. Even the rhythm work is plain. But maybe thats just what theyre going for. Simple music to rock to while drunk and/or stoned. And since I am neither drunk nor stoned I cant appreciate it. But feel free to light up and check it out. And if you think Im wrong, thats fine. This just isnt doing it for me.
