Eden's Fall are a band I've been familiar with for awhile, but likely few others
who are reading this review know them. I came across their site and demo
some time ago when it first came out and liked what I heard so now here it
is, 2006 and they've finally got a full length debut out.
It seems there has been an explosion of this sort of band lately... the
Nevermore-esque sound. I guess it's bound to happen when a band creates
a distinct style that becomes popular and it could certainly be worse. As to
not sell the band short though, I must say they do have their own sort of take
on the dark power/thrash sort of sound. The chug riffs are probably the thing
that remind me most of Nevermore while the vocals have more of an angry
snarled shout going on. The band also makes use of sporadic death backup
vocals which remind me of the gang vocals that many thrash bands made
use of in the 80s. The backing vocals add a little force to the music and fit in
seemlessly enough so that it shouldn't bother people who dislike death
metal.
Overall, this is a pretty heavy, dark, cynical sounding ride which should
please fans of bands like Nevermore and Eidolon. If heavy chug and pissed
off shouting is your bag then this is for you.
Highlights: Lost Again, Planet Hate, We Betray
Rating - 3.0/5
