REVIEW: RAVINE - DEPARTURE

 


RAVINE - DEPARTURE (Independent, 2001)


Produced by Ravine

Recorded at Eastcoast Studio

Cover Art by T. Öhman


Tracks: 1- Eclipse, 2- Towards 1000 Seas, 3- Departure - A Dream of Death


This is an excellent band with many ideas. Their music is extremely dark black metal with amny melodies and changes. And they also have some thrash metal elements that combined create great tracks. The main thing here is developing a dark atmosphere with the guitars (they play a lot of melodies and riffs in some sort of mid pace tempo). The vocals are trollish as in many black metal bands but this are more expresive (sort of a mix between a black metal band and Carcass to give you an example). The mix of the album is really good making all the melodies darker and pointing out all the atmospheres that the band wants to create. It is a pity that the recording has only three tracks because it leaves you wanting more

Favorite tracks: The threee contained here are amazing !!!
