Залит MightyZazuum/(2015)_Into_TheUnknown

Совершенно случайно набрёл на эту молодую команду, как выяснилось, из Хорватии.
Итак, хорватский металл... чем-то напоминают ранние Блэк Саббат и Поркупайн Три, да и вообще - звучание такое "классическое, английское, прогметаллическое".
Записано грязно, с диким перегрузом. Собственно особо интересного ничего там не оказалось.
Позднее нашел их и на ПА.

The band comes from Pula, Croatia, and it has been formed in 2010. The musicians gathered in this collective have been forging their music skills for years, and they are Vedran ZUPARIC (Нamo) - vocals, Michel CAMLIC - guitar, followed by equally important Dina Ivas - bass guitar, Tomislav Sestan - bass guitar and Alen TOPALOVIC - drums. The music they play has its roots in the old school. They took some progressive rock sound and combined it with psychedelic sound from the 60's and the 70's creating their strong music pillar. Нowever, their sound is streaked with modern sounds that give them a special ambient atmosphere. So, it's old school, progressive rock sound, combined with psychedelia from the 60's and the 70's and modern approach. They released EP "Mighty Zazuum" and currently they signed with Geenger Records and raising money through Pledgemusic for vinyl release of debut album "Into The Unknown". Mighty Zazuum also featured on Progsphere's Progstravaganza of Awesomeness- Part 10, with their track "Float".

Into The Unknown

It's not every day that I can listen to music from Croatia, but this is the case here with an album release two years ago.The first song"FNWO" is a 3 minutes Porcupine Tree guitar riff with some vocals effects, short, but efficient. The second track is starting into some old school rock and switching into a psychedelic mood with some catchy grooves and a melody that builds slowly with intensity. "Float" is again a return to the past with some good guitar and bass playing, the bass sound being upfront in the mix. The song ends in a kind of post-rock atmosphere. "Quest" is very ambient for the first 5 minutes before getting back to their regular pace at the end. "Chant" brings some impressive guitar/bass riffs again into some frenzy passages with their most heavy parts so far and also the best song. The song ends up with a stellar guitar solo. "Form" continue to add some heavy guitar riffs and many stops and go showing the guitar skill again. "Deep" is mixing the old school style of rock with the ambient and the psychedelic. In conclusion, this album is a nice discovery in that type of album that combines 60's, 70's music with some modern progressive rock, that has succeeded to build some "mighty" strong songs here.

Enjoy!
