REVIEW: ASTRAY - PROMO 2002

 


ASTRAY - PROMO 2002 (Independent, 2002)


Produced By: Astray


Tracks: 1- Welcome To the Cult, 2- Barbed Wire Paradise, 3- Bleeding Here


Cover Art by Astray


Astray has found the perfect way to combine the agression of styles like black metal and death metal with many melodies and arrangements. Their music brings to my mind some shades of bands like for example Primordial, that is bands that have a lot of power and aggression in their music but that at the same time they have the melodic arrangements that give a lot of quality to the songs. Here we have a great keyboard player that adds a lot of melodies and feelings to Astray´s songs giving a lot of identity to the band while the guitarists spit their riffs with total rage. The vocals are screaming ones in total black metal fashion and are fundamental to the aggressive sound of Astray´s music. If you love bands who combine really well extreme agression with quality and melodies here you have a band for you!!

Favorite tracks: The three
