Dead Of Night
Night Screamer
Metal maniacs, rejoice! I am proud to present to you: NIGHT SCREAMER; unsigned/independent, hailing from England - performing Heavy Metal, on their debut album entitled: "Dead Of Night" (released April 26th, 2019).
Since formation in 2013; the band in question have 2 EPs, a Single and this here debut album (of which I am introduced to) entitled "Dead Of Night". 9 tracks ranging at around 43:49; NIGHT SCREAMER arrange an intricately designed formula of hard-hitting Heavy Metal developments, "Sacrifice" begins the record – conveying amplified adrenaline, boistrously bouncy crunchiness & catchy captivation in which thumps with punchline grooves - amalgamated with wildly rushing virtuosity. The band execute crushing creativity; diligently kicking with jumpy riffs, solid solos and riveting rhythms of relentless ramifications – showcasing rambunctious melodies of meticulous detail, demonstrating harmonic haste and concretely gnarly grit, that manifests conceptual songwriting memorability with an originally stompy sound production.
Consisting of Gadd McFly on vocals; the frontman distributes clean, high-pitched pipes...lungs of onimously screaming vengence & savagely vicious shrieks. The titular track subjugates versatile ultilizations of uniquely technical tempos; pursuiting thunderous complexities from dextrous duo guitarists Calvin Lever & Jamie Carter, demonstrating dynamic flamboyancy – firepower and expertise...blistering barrages of frenzied finesse. "Blood On The Wall (Fucked It All Up)" embellishes on crafting diverse blends of snappy quirks; supplying rapidly swift nimbleness, and adroitly composed attributes of consistently driven gallops – experimenting a constructively distinguished flair of seamlessly sonic stability & rawly rough quintessentials. Quaking with profusely robust persistence, and remarkably organic substance.
Audible bassist Julia B. Cadau fabricates distinctive aesthetics of fluidly polished thickness; songs like "Hit n' Run" roar with ripping shreds, razor-sharp speed & pummelling perseverence - injecting infectiously old-school orchestration with an inventively modernized subtlty to it. Battering drummer Kilian Noise; hammers his steel with pounding precision, portraying punishing slams that frolick frantically. "March Of The Dead" fuels fiercely hardened hymns, as if a charging bulldozer stampedes with all guns blazing and a borderline foundation of punchline panache - trailblazing with predigious potential. While "Party With The Devil" chugs out more mellifluous systematics with an almost radio-friendly vibe; still transistioning volatile, and monstrously meaty weight to the mix.
"Paradise Lost" engages in an acoustic-esquire/anthemic flow; culminated with vehement variety, primitive patterns & deadly euphonics in which wonder with richly crisp characteristics. Converging angelic instrumentation, crazy musicianship & elegantly exquisite fulfillments of immersive combustion. "Rise Above" compiles aforementioned abilities with profound effectiveness; efficaciously implementing excelling elements, tenacious performances & stunning soundscapes that thunder with talented potential. Overall concluding "Dead Of Night" with the finale epic track: "Out Of My Mind" which shines with more tasteful styles; I am compelled to say that NIGHT SCREAMER certainly outdone themselves with this one, and is definitely worth the discovery - good stuff.
