DEVIL DRONE - Erebo
Cave
Canem D.I.Y
I’m
going to start this presentation in an unorthodox way and will comment on the
excellent packaging of this work. The digipack is superb, the artwork and
everything around it indicates a professional release coming out of one of the
big labels. Still DEVIL DRONE have released this on their own with the help of
Cave Canem which is a Do It Yourself company. So, kudos guys on the kick ass
work. The production is also noteworthy since it has the necessary volume and
power while it still allows all the instruments to be equally heard.
Now,
let’s move to the main part, the music itself. DEVIL DRONE is a new band from
Italy – yes, Italy again and this proves what I’ve been saying about how strong
its underground scene is- delivering high class and full of might death/thrash
metal. I don’t have any more information on the band so I assume they are
newcomers, but “Erebo” shows potential and a really tight band that knows how
to deliver aggressive and intense thrash metal coated with a great deal of
death metal elements. The vocals are harsh and brutal, they have a guttural hue
and yet when the vocalist wants to highlight some more extreme parts of the
music he even throws in some more high pitched growls. The rhythm section is
solid and heavy and the guitars show a range with other times focusing mainly
on delivering aggressive and brutal riffs, while other times they add some
melodies to enhance the variety. Interesting thrash death metal work that the
fans of the genre should check out!
