Vortex
was formed back in 1994, in Tokyo, Japan. Their style is quite impressive;
technical death metal, and they pull it off quite well. They have
a similar style, sound, and feeling as the death metal gods Death.
They have some great leads, some chaotic, some melodic, and some just
plan sick and heavy. The solos convey a good amount of feeling, and
they tend to send the song in a different direction. Not a bad direction,
just a different feeling. The four songs on this CD have entertained
me for a while. The complexity of some parts of the songs make you
not get bored with this CD and with over twenty-four minutes of music
on four tracks, you can tell they these guys are not afraid to write
songs that are more then just a sample. While all the tracks on this
CD are good, my favorite tracks are "Stigma," and "Burnt
With Thoughts." Vortex is among the best metal that I have heard
coming out of Japan, and especially death metal. Don't be afraid to
check out this metal battalion, you are assured to be impressed as
I am. Rating: 89 |
