Check out our first album review from Radio Internetowe Panteon in #Poland!!! Its in Polish (obviously) but thanks to Edyta we have a translation for you - it makes an interesting read, though weve not sure we totally agree with the lack of bass comment at the end. ;) radiopanteon.pl/?p=738 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evyltyde “Evyltyde” – Review A month before the premiere I had the opportunity to get the British bands debut album - “Evyltyde”. Officially, the album will be released on 19 January 2015. The band was formed in August 2013 on the initiative of guitarist Danny Merton and vocalist Hannah Delany. In press materials, we can read that the band owes growing popularity to its deviation from what is typically associated with female vocals, like gothic and symphonic metal, combining a traditional metal sound with sharp riffs and strong vocals - traditional, power, melodic metal, this is what we read in the description on band fan page. In my opinion: Traditional - definitely yes, power we associate with higher register vocals and even often falsetto, melodious - definitely yes. The first track on the album is “Down Below”. This track says a lot about the album. According to the announcement appear sharp riffs. This was supposed to be traditionally and actually guitars are quite strict. The next track is “Kick You Down”, which brings another cool guitar solo. On the fifth position we find Disappear - the only acoustic song and it is enjoyable and melodious. And at the very end of the albums we have a remarkable track - “Fly Away”. The last track is the one that will stick in my memory for a long time. Once it ends and the player stops, the thought comes to mind – again! What I think about all of this album? Before I give it a score, I would go back to a few aforementioned subjects. To the list of styles that includes music of this band I would add; heavy. I cannot agree totally to specifying a move away from what is typically present female-fronted bands. I agree that the music and vocals are far from what we hear in bands like Within Temptation, but do not forget that female-fronted is also Arch Enemy. As for the vocals on the album they are feminine, but are so good! Even in What Have We Become? or Your Darkest Fears there are some elements that remind me of the Gothic, but not in the extreme, there is nothing of which needs to be explained. For me there could be more bass on the album. I rate this album on 8/10.
