Country: France
I noticed recently, that Metalcore are blooming. At present the many bands connect two predatory sorts of music – Metal with Hardcore. The result of this is just Metalcore – The music which possesses heaviness and force of Metal as well as the emotional fury of Hardcore. Just such is MEMORIES OF A DEAD MAN
Obviously structure of riffs are more in style of Hardcore. Here is a lot of spatial and sharp pulling of strings and sometimes accented by muffled riffs. Straight solos and very melodious sounds as well as specific melodious guitar's subjects (sometimes outright psychedelic) create specific deep climate. And this in connection with vocals creates atmosphere in style Emocore or Sludge Doom Metal or also Shoegazer as well as Post Rock. And the vocals – the furious screams, the calm singings or the recitations as well as the whispers underline the emotionality of the album Generally saying, the pace of the works is pretty solid. Though the rhythms of arrangements are pretty complex too. Although the works characterize the average-slow paces (with short accelerations), which are lead by the solid work of the drums. And therefore the all tracks are intensely changeable. Heavy and sharp moments full of wrath appear cyclically with very melancholy accents. Some motifs of guitar-vocal remind me GOJIRA, others motifs – TOOL and SYSTEM OF A DOWN (but MEMORIES OF A DEAD MAN has more furious vocal exaltation). In some moment the gentle accents of piano appeared also here On the end of material I began wondering – Are some influences of progressive music also here?
The music possesses specific melody and first of all is very emotional These works really are able to stir and to stimulate to aggression but and also to sadness. The fury, the sorrow and the melancholy harangue by this music I'm wondering – Who was the man from the band's name? Someone who went away and left the sorrow but and the wrath among the livings
