Austrian Independent band GRIM JUSTICE is pretty cool actually with Metallica "And Justice For All" -esque album art, which I secretly really enjoy . I like their aesthetic overall and the overall music quality is there. I watched the video for Blood-Moon great name btw, they just need to get some better angels on her in my opinion. It was fun but I just don't see it reaching audiences like it may have in the early 1980's. I really liked track three though also known as Dark Soul. Something about the ambient guitar melody in the beginning was truly soothing to me as I sat writing longing for more to enter my ear canals. It came back around 3:00 and I was just like "woah nelly" there is one of the most beautiful guitar riffs I have ever heard. I'm not quite sure their videos do them "Justice" as musicians!
Moving on to track number four House in the Shadows it was pretty tight, this is a good topic for heavy metal, props to the song-writer. Timeless. The growl at 1:25 really fits well too! Track Five Terminus II Had a nice melodic metal riff intro like dark soul which I loved too! They are slowly becoming one of my favorite bands here jeez! I like that you can hear her amazing voice throughout this album too, it is very beautiful and makes me feel very peaceful! I like how you can really feel the back and forth energy of them at five minutes into the song. It feels really good and natural. Keep it up! This was a real jam!
The next song on the album Hey Angel was a truly beautiful and amazing track. I really wonder who this angel character she is talking about is an interesting alternative album art maybe?! There is definitely potential here for something I feel. Nonetheless a really beautiful song! When Night Falls I honestly really love this symphonic intro here, spot on! Interesting lyrics and wonderful musicianship. Argus sounded really good too, I would really like to see stuff like this in more than just montage videos. This should be being used for video games more often in my opinion. I grew up playing arcade games like Metal Slug which had lots of guitar riffs like this and I just think kids today are missing out on it all!
