After listening to their debut single "Whispers" on their
myspace page, I decided to purchase the entire album. I must
say that these guys are talented. The lead guitarist Mauser
(who is also from the death metal band Vader) is very very
good. He can really jam out, and really shines in most of
the songs in his solos. Heinrich, the bass guitarist, (is
from the death metal band Vesania) keeps the rhythm going
strong with his riffs. I really love his slap bass solo in
the song "Indifference." Vaaver, the drummer (also from Indukti)
is very talented, one of the best drummers out there. You
can hear his distinctive sound throughout the album. Aya,
the vocalist, isn't too bad. Her tone is very clear, and she
is pleasant to listen to. She is Polish so she does have a
thick accent, but I don't have a problem with it. She doesn't
have the power of Sharon from Within Temptation or Cristina
from Lacuna Coil, but she rounds out the band well. Their
lyrics are a bit simple and occasionally ridiculous sounding
(especially the song Destiny), since English obviously isn't
their first language, I can let that slide. With time I bet,
they will improve their songwriting skills. Overall, their
music skills are above average and their lyrical skills are
fair. However, if you are expecting Death Metal like Vader
and Vesania, you will be disappointed. They are very much
Gothic Metal with clean vocals only.
