This band comes from Calgary, Alberta and this is, as I understand their debut studio effort. This ep contains 5 songs of horrorpunk mayhem mixed with a lot of psychobilly influence in the song structures.
Vocally, the band leans more on a harsh side of the things, but adding enough melody to be memorable and catchy. I have said it for million times and I say it again, I just love when horrorpunk bands use samples from the movies and this band does it during the whole e.p. My favourite song on the e.p. is “Zombie Girl” being the most melodic song on the record and I listened to it couple of times in a row. Time passes quickly while listening to this e.p. and I really wish these guys record a whole full album and I cant wait to hear it. We will hear of this band more in the future I am sure.
Sweden´s Voith released the new 2 track single “Wir Sind Die Roboter” from the upcoming album “Le Photographe” scheduled out on 20th April.
On this new single the two songs match the direction Lars Voith, the mastermind of the project wanted it to go. This means dark and electronic synthpop with a lot of ambient and experimental parts with a nod to the classics of the genre Kraftwerk, whose work influenced so many that came after them. As far as I am concerned, I like this stuff. As a lifelong Depeche Mode fan since I was a kid, I can listen to such darker side of synthpop and learn to love it. I cant wait how the whole album will sound like. Here is the little teaser:
Votov hail from Winnipeg, Canada and this trio united their years long experience in the underground music scene and in 2015.formed this band wishing to play brutal death thrash metal, stripped of any effects, meaning playing pure brutal metal.
This debut cd contains 7 songs and one Celtic Frost cover. From the start of the album it´s clear that there are no jokes and no holds barred with these guys. The music is American school of death metal, but there are lot of grooves in the song structures and above all, I really love the production sound of the album, the job was indeed well done. I understood the thrash metal parts of the songs as a nod of the head to the old masters who probably influenced the guys through their formative years in the metal scene. Canada always gave great underground metal and hardcore bands, so I imagine that Votov have a great future in the store if they persist with their hard work. The results are already shown, here, through this album!
