Finnish
underground label Bestial Burst have decided to release a split 7”
with Finnish dirt rockers Conjuration and Danish black metal outfit
Full Moon Lycanthropy. How this decision came about, I don’t
understand. There are few, if any, similarities between the two bands,
and the quality of the two bands’ output is apparent. According
to the press release, the two songs of the EP share a werewolf theme,
but you’d need a lyric sheet to get this (the advance CD-r doesn’t
contain any lyrics). Conjuration’s
tune “Vorvolaka” is, to say it the least, an uninspired rock song
with a growling vocal effort, whereas the Danes have a lot more to
offer with “Wolfman”. With heavy influences from Emperor, Arcturus
and stints of Cradle of Filth commercialism, Full Moon Lycanthropy
rest firmly in their genre. They purport suitable measures of
controlled aggression and chaos soli, flanked by symphonic keyboard
bursts. A very promising release indeed. If
you like black metal, you can acquire the release from www.fullmoonlycanthropy.dk.
If you’re into dirt rock, I’d suggest you look somewhere else. |
