![]() On one hand we have Mastodon-ish riffs (The Great Imitator, The Great Filter) bathed in Deathspell Omega-ian and Ulcerate-ian dissonance (Red Ayrag) with some references to Prong's masterpiece "Cleansing" (Versterven). On the other hand we have Opeth-ian/Alice In Chains-ey mood changers/momentum killers (Alone In The Column) which seem to go on forever (Fostering This Nullity) even if they do contain some tasty Depeche Mode-ic key patterns, but, overall, "Nullity" is a frustrating listening experience precisely because it seldom stays in one place. It is when it does that Lesser Glow shines as on the aforementioned "Fostering This Nullity" (toward the end) or on the best track, the closer "Toba" where Alec Rodriguez's frightening vocal performance screams for a Grammy Award. Just a bit more focus and tightening up of the loose sounds should do the trick next time, but Lesser Glow already has a great potential to go with a very original sound. Check it out, especially the closer. https://lesserglow.bandcamp.com Andre omtaler:22.01.2021: DESCEND TO ACHERON - Transcience Of The Flesh 21.01.2021: DISPYT - Under Tiden Jag Sälde Min Själ Till Satan 20.01.2021: JERRY BLOOM - In the Shadow of the Wizard: Rainbow 1975-1976 19.01.2021: ECLIPSE - Viva La VicTOURia: Live in Gothenburg 18.01.2021: BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - A Long Day’s Night (Deluxe Edition CD/DVD) 16.01.2021: ELLEFSON - No Cover 15.01.2021: U.D.O./Das Musikkorps Der Bundeswehr - We Are One 14.01.2021: FOREIGNER - Can’t Slow Down – Deluxe Edition 13.01.2021: HJELVIK - Welcome to Hel 12.01.2021: HEAVY PETTIN - Best of Heavy Pettin 11.01.2021: STEVE HACKETT - A Genesis in My Bed 08.01.2021: VANDEN PLAS - The Ghost Xperiment - Illumination 07.01.2021: MAGIC DANCE - Remnants 06.01.2021: PERSUADER - Necromancy 05.01.2021: PALACE - Rock and Roll Radio 04.01.2021: GODSEND - As The Shadows Fall 23.12.2020: UNRULY CHILD - Our Glass House 22.12.2020: MEER - Playing House 21.12.2020: JEFF SCOTT SOTO - Wide Awake (in My Dreamland) 19.12.2020: AMAHIRU - Amahiru |
