Deadsmoke are a new Italian- doom sludge punk trio. Branches
of Evil starts things off in a heavy manner with a powerful nearly screamed
vocal with some delay on it while the restof the band is quite downtuned and
sludgy. I like the way the song sort of dies out with this evil drone. Eyes of
the Blindman is a heavy riff to start but very similar to 100s of others we
have heard. Pretty straight up standard doom until the strange effect on the
guitar kicks in and wow, that changes things. The vocals varied on this track
with more laid back and also powerful screamed parts with some long delays. It
can feel quite psychedelic at times. Liar behind Me is another pretty doomy
affair with a delay guitar part in the section and then it gets really intense
for the last section. Tornado is the slowest track and I like the bass sound
and guitar as this one slowly grows. It is a bit repetitive at times and I wish
the guitar was more adventurous. It gets quite psychedelic at the end with some
effects and stuff. Night of the Vipers is the last track and a bit like Funeral
Doom stuff at times but not as slow, but the melodic nature on one section.
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
