REVIEW: NEVERMORE, Enemies Of Reality / Remixed (2005)

 

NEVERMORE, Enemies Of Reality / Remixed (2005)

Century Media Records

Το CD του 2003 που ξανά μιξαριστικε το 2005, με τα χρώματα του εξωφύλλου κι οπισθόφυλλου σε αρνητικό χρώμα, -έχω και τις δύο εκδόσεις, υπό την διεύθυνση του Kelly των Queensryche αρχικά στη παλιά μίξη-  εδώ πλήρως ανανεωμένο απ' τον Andy Sneap  βγάζει μίσος. Σχεδόν Thrash Metal, ο Warell Dane  κι η κουστωδία των φίλων του στο πιο τραχύ Nevermore cd... Μετά το πολύ mainstream Dead Heart... εδώ τα πράγματα σφίγγουν εφιαλτικά. Tomorrow Turned Into Yesterday, Create The Infinite, Enemies Of Reality, Who Desides και το κλασικό I Voyager είναι σκοτεινά διαμάντια.

English Text:

The CD released in 2003, which underwent a remix in 2005, featuring negative colors on both its front and back covers – I happen to own both editions. Originally under the guidance of Kelly from Queensryche in the initial mix, it has been entirely rejuvenated by Andy Sneap, exuding an intense sense of animosity. It ventures into the realm of almost Thrash Metal, with Warrel Dane and his comrades delivering their craft at its most raw, resulting in what can be considered one of Nevermore's most rugged albums.

After the rather mainstream "Dead Heart," the album takes a dark and nightmarish turn. Tracks like "Tomorrow Turned Into Yesterday," "Create The Infinite," "Enemies Of Reality," "Who Decides," and the timeless classic "I Voyager" shine as darkly brilliant gems amidst the music's depths.
