PERCEPTION CONFUSED – A Sphere about to
Burst EP
Independent
It
is really nice to have the chance to present a new band in the crowd and
especially when it has something interesting to give to the metal audience.
PERCEPTION CONFUSED are from Germany and they were created back in 2014. The
musicians who are members of this band have previous experience with other
projects they participated in, in the past and because of that in a short time they
released their first work which I am about to present to you here.
Lyrically
the band is inspired by modern social issues and more specifically by the
influence that the Internet has upon the people. It is an influence that makes
us lose connection with reality and communicate as real people. In my opinion
this is an interesting topic and it is good to ponder on it.
Musically
the band according to me moves on the path of traditional heavy/power metal
which is mostly influenced by the U.S. and British metal scene. Keep in mind,
though, that PERCEPTION CONFUSED don’t restrict their style in one specific
sound, but they do blend in it influences from other metal genres. Also they
give to their compositions a progressive structure that sometimes even flirts
with jazz, but they do it not in a way to show off, but because it gives their
songs a dramatic touch. I think that the fans of good old FATES WARNING, IRON
MAIDEN, DREAM THEATER and even METALLICA will find this release very enjoyable.
Finally
the band is very tight and performs all the compositions included here on a high
and professional level and above all they seem to have the talent to create
interesting and original songs. Also the voice of Daniel Treude fits very well
to the whole sound, but in my opinion he has to work a bit on his high pitched
singing. All in all it is an EP of a very talented new band that the fans of
progressive heavy metal should check out.
