The Call Of The Sea CD. ENCOMIUM
Extreme underground magazineHey, what the hell is it? Powerfull Death Metal from Estonia! Great! This is the first Estonian band I am listening to and at once they impressed me with the proffesional and intens songs they’ve managed to create. On this Album the members are Dmitry Potekhin (bass), Alexandr Kobzar (lead guitar), Sergei Shelepov (vocal, guitar), Denis Shelepov (drums, keyboards). They mainly operate with brutal things, though there are lots of acoustic inclusions and melodic parts in their compositions as in songs like BLOWING WAVES and RAISE YOUR SWORD to name a few. The overall sound production kicks ass, especially I like the guitar sound. It rips the flesh off. Well, there are 12 songs in general (two of them are covers).
INTO THE CONVENT from King Diamond’s THE EYE album, which they transformed into their Death Metal style having left some parts as in the original version. Good job guys! And finally you can get asquainted with Led Zeppelin’s cover THE OCEAN. Again trying to be nearly as good as possible to the original version. As for me these guys are provided their musical talents!
