Country: Italy
Cool songs: Deaths Colors
As the bands bio says, it was born in October of 1996 and baptized BODY GRINDER. After releasing some full-length albums, the crew decided to change the name in 2000, into RISING MOON. And since that time, the guys released some more material and went on some tours giving gigs. Sounds routine?
From the first note it is clearly audible and visible (even the greatest layman will guess it) that this band is from Italy. The musicians from this country have something in them, which makes them recognizable all over the world. RISING MOONs music is as simple as the construction of a shovel. The melodic death stuff is quite nice, but does not bring anything new to this scene. The musicians should take under consideration the fact, that people sooner or later will get bored with that stuff. I have to admit, that the demo material is very solid: dynamic, heavy, classical riffs, everything shows, that the musicians are masters in their craft. But the predictability and old-fashioned approach destroys the album.
And that is the main problem of many such bands, who want to conquer the world with their music. But they are very wrong. Solid material without solid performance cannot guarantee such success.
