DEADSEA – Interview with Guitarist/Vocalist Adam Smith, Drummer Jeremy Spears, Bassist Alex Conley
After thirty-five years of heavy metal, there is little a band can do that hasnt already been done. Soon after a groundbreaking band appears, a million bands from every corner of the world will play that sound to death, and then tap into it some more, like a loony necrophile returning to the grave of a favorite victim for desert. One mode of remedy is combining many sounds and styles, leading to a progressive tag. That is precisely what Midwest metallers, DEADSEA have created with their latest, self-titled effortreleased in 2007 via Chrome Leaf Records (owned by bassist Alex Conley). The mere combination of styles is not enough, though, to make a great album. An excellent progressive band should emphasize other aspects such as flow, catchy riffs, proper use of dynamics, lyrical depth, and melody. DEADSEA excels in all these areas. How does a band like DEADSEA gather all these elements and smoothly incorporate them into their music? In an email interview with all three members of DEADSEA, Metal Centre set out to answer that question and find out more about the band.
DEADSEA „Self-Titled”
Finding a single term to describe the music DEADSEA plays proved a difficult task. Progressive usually denotes a style of music with many changes, which aptly describes DEADSEAs latest self-titled effort; however, this term also refers to a certain sound, often marked by a throwback keyboard sound and clean vocals.
