Amia Venera Landscape – Ep
[2009]
genre: post-metal, sludge, post-hardcore, hardcore, experimental, metal, tech metal
EP Review by Sovereign

A sludgy post-hardcore from an Italian band. Brutal vocals rotate with clean and give to the atmosphere an alternative color.
Technical play of instruments, acceleration and high speed guitars. This EP is a great piece of the work about what this band can do.
Three well enough tracks with a heavy attitude, a hardcore sound and a technical approach. This is the first ever work of this band, but out of the blue is really well structured, great from the composition point of view and very good as a sound. No more to say, give it a try and enjoy their inspiration. Modern metal with alternative strokes of the brush.

Bird from the Abyss – I EP
[CD-r,2009]
genre: experimental, psychedelic, folk, experimental rock, art rock, prog, ambient, drone.
EP Review by Sovereign

This EP is a kind of folk doom, it is not exactly a metal release, it is more an experimental rock something than a heavy sound music, it is instrumental music with strange instruments and a folklore attitude.
There is an ethnic and a world music atmosphere.
This release is psychedelic and progressive.
A hot air from Africa, sounds from ancient years, flutes and noise, drones and lutes.
The Finnish band mix ambient and drone sounds with instrumental folkish rock and stoner-a-like fuzzy music.
Really enjoyable first attempt from a new band.
They deserve a lot.
