I recently heard of Deadlock about a year ago and fell in love with their sound. Unlike most of your typical death metal bands, they had a sound that is uncompromising and brutal. Yet they use symphonic/atmospheric concepts and incorporate them with style and grace. "Not Too Much" is the perfect phrase for how they utilize their keyboards/synth effects. Of course you have your brutality and guitar riffs that will keep headbangers going for hours on in... The Beauty and Beast style they are now using has added death and a sense of completeness to the album. This album grabs you from the get go and never lets down. I've noticed a bit of techno feel to some of the tracks and trust me, they are well warranted. This is a must have for fans of death metal/black metal/beauty and the beast style compositions. Be sure to check out Code of Honor... best song on the album!!! You'll be hooked by the first 30 seconds of the song... trust me. It's their most intelligent, intricate and accomplished effort to date in my opinion. Truly a great band will to change with the times and change for the better!!!
Deadlock is a German melodic death metal band that combine metal with the harsh atmospheric nature of today's modern sounds.
Wer diesen text ließt und versteht sollte dann auch nicht entäuscht sein, das dort eine Frau singt ;). Ich finde das Album sehr gelungen. Aber am Ende hat doch jeder seinen eigenen Geschmack ;).
