From the opening track ("Twisted Reality")
to the closing track ("Beyond the Darkness"), technicality
certainly isn't lacking 'nor is the Schuldiner-like guitar attacks.
I am awe-inspired once again! Dungortheb
has entranced me to the extents of early 90's Malevolent Creation
(the vocals) and Death... yes, Death!! While Death will always remain
the master and creator of all that is death metal today, this quartet
from France are seemingly enough very huge fans and very talented
young musicians to be able to pull off any shred of a Death riff or
solo - but they do! I am extremely proud of hearing such a marvel
of an album in "Intended To...", that I will personally
recommend Dungortheb to everyone into technical music. I think my
favorite tracks on this one are "Two Faces" and "Place
of Alienation". Of course, that is at the moment... perhaps my
favorites will change the next time I listen to the album (which will
be continual - haha). Every track on "Intended To..." is
a worthy "We Know We're Good, So Bow To Us" musical masterpiece.
I can't pin-point exactly how great the delivery of musicianship is,
that would be impossible. The only thing I can possibly criticize
would be the bit of under production, which isn't really that noticable
to begin with. I think another album from now, with a crystal clear
production and obvious progression, these guys will be one of my new
favorite bands! If any one of you reading this review are/were Death
fans, make sure you recognize Dungortheb as the next best thing!!
Let's just be thankful that these guys are out there.... ("Support
music, not rumors" - as Chuck would say) Rating: 92 Reviewed By: Thomas Mitchell |
