The first few seconds of the first song gives you the impression that what one has here is a 100% pure death metal, pure and simple. The speed, the voice, etc.. is all there. But by the middle of the song and you have to really listen for it, one begins to hear a little melody, a little catchiness. Song #2, “Flipside of Reality” begins the same, but now it’s obvious what’s going on here Gardenian is moving more towards the traditional heavy metal. The melodic chords, the catchiness, total heavy metal. The whole release is a band that plays death metal mainly do to the voice, but with the exception with one singing part on the 2nd song. Call it power death metal, if there is such a thing. Where Gardenian will go, no one can tell, but I’m betting they’ll be a lot heavier and heavier with time. Good stuff and it will be interesting to hear their evolution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
