Aethyr
Emeth
Intelligent Technical Death Metal. If you will find yourself categorizing this band, this might be the most proper unique thing to tell about them. Those guys created an intelligent, deep version of the classic full of gore Brutal Death Metal, and mashed it up with uncompromising breakdowns and techniques of the Modern Metal worlds as well. ABORTED – But with a glimpse of DREAM THEATER into it, if you would like to think in known terms.
Hailing all the way from Belgium, these are EMETH.
Being completely honest, I have heard anything like this before. Through all my teenage years and my adulthood I listened to many forms of Metal, some common, some less common, and some are very weird – listening to those guys simply astonished me. The music is heavy. Technically written. Well performed.
However, from the technical aspect I have to say – you can hear that they use the amp modellers. This is a very precise sound, yet very cold with a lack of “Analogue Feel” to it. Which stands for traditional Metal fans as a con – But from the modern aspect, you might actually find this sound a breakthrough of the modern technology of Metal.
I might add as well that the sick tracks, the amazing (seriously, just read it) lyrics and lyrical theme, alongside the high-technical solos gives you a band, which is not a common band in today’s arsenal – but a band to stay and keep strong. I see a bright future for those Belgian guys in front of them.
