MOANING SILENCE - Fragrances from
Yesterdays EP
Independent
The
Greek metal scene was known in the past years mostly due to its extreme metal
scene… Something very logical based on the quality of the bands in this genre.
These latest years though our scene shows a pluralism in many different genres
of the heavy metal music and with noticeable quality. MOANING SILENCE had
impressed me with their debut album which I had the chance to present in this
zine a while ago. Now 2 years after their debut full length the band releases
an EP in order to expand more the borders of their music.
Their
new EP is dominated by a concept idea which has to do with memories and how they
are affected through time. It is an idea that fits perfectly to the music of
MOANING SILENCE which moves in the paths of gothic and doom metal. The basic
elements that characterize the sound of MOANING SILENCE are the melancholic
atmosphere, the melodies and of course the mid tempo compositions. Of course
the duality of harsh male and melodic female vocals gives the known theatric
touch that the band displayed in its debut release.
All
in all, the band musically continues on the same path with their debut album
and I like the fact that their music has this old school gothic/doom sound that
is hard to find in our days and they do it in such a fresh way. It is a work
that shows the progress of the band as their compositions are more mature and
also this is an album that can be enjoyed even by people who are not into this
kind of genre. I think they deserve your attention.
