Un projet qui sonne très éclectique, qui va du death metal suédois au rock 70's, tout en restant mélodique.
Octoploid - the band founding by Olli-Pekka "Oppu" Laine (bass, keyboards, backing vocals / Amorphis, Barren Earth, Mannhai) - will release their debut album, Beyond The Aeons, this Friday, July 5 via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).
In celebration of the release, the group today shares a lyric video for closing track, “A Dusk Of Vesk" (feat. Jón Aldará).
Comments Laine, "A crushing mid-tempo death metal riff, an arena chorus, a twisted foundation and a ‘70s AOR outro migrate here… making a coherent song out of those diverse ingredients is not only possible, but 'A Dusk Of Vex' is a living proof of that."
Beyond The Aeons was crafted at E-Studio in Sipoo, Finland where Petri Majuri (Hanoi Rocks, Michael Monroe) took care of mixing the eight tracks and David Castillo (Katatonia, Leprous, Opeth) mastered the album. Orion Landau (Carcass, YOB, Russian Circles ) completed the magnificent package with dreamy artwork.

I'm the lost one chasing colors to the sun
Colors bleed but never fade
Après une première écoute, je suis quelque peu dubitatif. C'est de qualité mais le mélange me laisse perplexe pour l'instant. A voir après plusieurs écoutes si j'arrive à rentrer dedans
