Kada pomisliš na Švedsku, osim prekrasnog Sjevera, sjetiš se da je ta zemlja rasadnik odlične muzike, pogotovo na ekstremnoj muzičkoj sceni. Diablo Swing Orchestra dolaze iz Stockholma i na sceni su od 2003., ovo je njihov peti dugosvirajući album. Ovaj bend je stvarno poseban. Korijeni ovog benda leže u metalu, onom drugačijem i avangardnom, ali tu je i miješanje swinga, mamba, nekih ska elemenata, pa i klasičnog rockabilly swinga u strukture pjesama. Bend ima osmero članova, uz klasične instrumente tu su i buzuki, trombon, truba, klavir, a povrh svega toga i odlični elektronski efekti koji naglašavaju originalnost pisanja pjesama ovog benda. Ovu muziku bih opisao kao soundtrack gangstera iz 30-ih koji su ubijeni u mafijaškim ratovima i gore u paklu. Meni najdraže pjesme s ovog albuma su Celebremos Lo Inevitable, Malign Monologues i The Prima Donna Gauntlet. Odličan avangardni bend.

(review) Sinister King – All Is Vanity e.p.
Sinister King are band based in Bergen, Norway. This is their new self released e.p. and it contains 5 songs of melodic metal. Music of Sinister King borders somewhere in between melodic heavy metal, melodic death metal, more modern oriented groove metal and epic harmonies in greatly written choruses. Lyrics are more melancholic, as are guitar hooks and melodies providing atmosphere of darkness and despair mixed with beauty. Vocals are good, demanding of the song, sometimes growled and more shouted, sometimes more classic metal singing. Piano and synth undertones provide rich soundscape taking us away for the duration of this e.p. My personal favorites are the title song and Death Of All Joy. I await eagerly for more from this band.

SINQUANON is a Swiss metalcore project from Monthey founded in 2018 by Yann Savoini. His music is characterized above all by a balance of nuances. Poetic and sharp, light and furious at the same time, he releases all his sensitivity and his sincerity through strong and committed messages. Multi-instrumentalist, Yann composes and records all instruments. Then add different textures of keyboards and layers of voices that blend together, creating a real cocktail of (un)saturated colors. A surprising travel between radically different atmospheres composed of stormy breakdowns, apocalyptic rhythms and soothing cleans. Everything is enhanced by catchy and groovy choruses with an effective voice performance. Live, Benjamin Haeberli (drums), Johann Seydoux (guitar), Marco Ballerini (guitar) and Alex Jentsch (bass) join the combo to transcribe all the intensity of the compositions on stage. Yann takes the microphone for the occasion and leads the dance. The band is delighted to be on stage at many venues and festivals in Switzerland and all around the world to convey their message, enthusiasm and passion for music. Sinequanon joins AEON Music Management and plans to release the first album in 2021. American producer Kris Norris (formerly Darkest Hour, ex-Scar The Martyrs) joins the project in January 2019 to bring his experience. A solo adventure that started in a bedroom and will grow on roads around the world.
