Review by Est
In 2007 he was appointed to life a secret subject, no one on earth knew about it. For two years the members of this band is unknown to anyone prepared diabolical plan, which they enter into force in 2009. Nobody predicted - even Nostradamus did not mention in their predictions word of four men who come from the island and lead to the final devastation of the Earth. Only St John was right - the four horsemen arrived to begin the apocalypse. The destruction which they brought with them was to be the end of humanity, but that instead of panic or seek help staring up at the beauty of destruction.
beauty of destruction takes less than 40 minutes, but leaves a scar in his soul, which does not let you forget about the first attack of the horsemen. A small handful of the human species has survived, and among them there were writers who, in the following manner described all of this extraordinary event:
suddenly brightening sky and clouds behind a small cloud began to look like winged figures, like angels. Choral singing fascinated mankind, which nothing is hoping with bated breath heard the heavenly song. Hypnotic closing track sounds of trumpets, which proved to herald the beginning of the end. Suddenly from the heavens sprinkled with fiery rain, and winged creatures flew out from behind the four riders. Each of four carried destruction and their impact on the Earth each accompanied by the angelic choir accompaniment. Fiery rain was consumed with every moment ever larger parts of the Earth. People of man did not know what to do - force, which seemed to be entrusted to turn against him. Good and evil, beauty and ugliness, life and death - seemed to be the same, united against life on Earth. Demons struck anything in the dance which was destroying everything in their path, as the gentle singing of angelic choirs seemed to be an amazing presentation, even divine spectacle. However, the winged messengers took pity upon imperfect kind of man, seeing his repentance and desire to do good. Saving a small group of winged messengers of heaven hid a small group of people in the deepest caves where you could only hear the next note symphony of destruction, a storm of fire, which raged across the Earth's surface.
More or less, you can describe the music contained on Xerath "I". Why the connection between good and evil? Because the symphony seems to be good and bad groove - so at least I hear roles on this album. Four Britons created something extraordinary - and certainly not about a normal call, but to do so with the head, and finally with the idea of \u200b\u200bcreation, something that is both beautiful and catchy. This success has failed to achieve in the "II", but then you can always go back to their debut album, two years after its launch still dazzles. What can be criticized Xerath? In truth I do not know, for me it's what they played was fresh, catchy, and so convincing that listening to this material is difficult to away from him. Just a perfect debut album and as much as I do not want to believe that it is forming part of the musicians are not Xerath behind any great experience in the metal scene. "I" is both a great idea and the same performance, for me, this material has no downside.
mix proposed by the British does not happen very often - after all, there are few bands that combine the groove metal and symphony. Yes, call the heavier varieties of metal from the orchestrations are nothing new, but usually this is done within the species or the black death. Yet here we are serious guitar, groove, metal riffs, roaring vocals - all of which are supported by a beautifully sounding symphonic melodies. Each time listening to "I" I feel that watching a great movie - filled with beautiful (albeit nienachalnymi) special effects, a work created with real verve, with an interesting scenario, with beautiful pictures and perfectly executed work of the director. If anyone is looking for music, which he does not listen, but it survives, it could not get better.
