(novi post – recenzija) Kanonenfieber – Live in Oberhausen

Leave a comment

U zadnjih nekoliko godina ima više bendova koji pjevaju o Prvom svjetskom ratu kao što su 1914, Minenwerfer, pa i naš Prognan, no meni su daleko najbolji Kanonenfieber iz Njemačke. Kanonenfieber je zapravo djelo masterminda poznatog po imenu Noise, a svi muzičari nastupaju maskiranih lica kao i on, odjeveni u njemačke vojnike iz Prvog svjetskog rata i to im daje dodatnu dozu mističnosti. Muzika je neki miks melodičnog death metala, atmosferičnog melodičnog black metala. Noiseovi vokali su harsh onako black metali, ali miksaju se sa čistim harmoničnim pjevanjem backova i daju naprosto odlične pjesme. Na ovom live albumu nalaze se 14 pjesama i to samo hit do hita. Tu su Sturmtrupp, Der Maulwurf, kao i legendarna Menschemuhle. Meni je jedna od njihovih najdražih Die Havarie i ona je našla mjesto na ovom albumu, kao i Waffenbruder, te Der Fusilier. Ovo je odličan bend i meni trenutno najdraži ovakve tematike. Ima svega, od agresivnih blast beatova preko melodija koje su odlično napisane, a sama struktura pjesama je napravljena da ni u jednom trenutku ne dosadi. Odličan bend, a ovaj live album je odlično sredstvo predstavljanja benda široj publici.

The Finnish melodic death/groove metal band Falling From Grave released their second studio album ‘At The Edge’ via Inverse Records on May 2nd 2025. 

LISTEN to ‘At The Edge’ album on streaming services: https://push.fm/fl/ffg-edge 

The theme of the album revolves around the title, as it explores the mindset of a person who has been pushed to the edge mentally, with no way out. The lyrics, as usual, touch on the darker side of life, but also address the current state of the world. The compositions on the album are somewhat darker than those on the previous release, “Shattered.” There is also a song on the album, titled “The Creator,” which is a bit different from the band’s usual style. Falling From Grace’s characteristic energy and aggression are also present on this release.

At The Edge combines various genres of metal, with a focus on groove metal and melodic death metal. The songwriting is once again handled by the band’s guitarist Timi Tonteri.

Nils Courbaron (Sirenia, Bloodorn, T.A.N.K.) is featuring on the album’s last track The Creator. 

“With At The Edge, we’ve taken a step forward from the last album and incorporated elements we haven’t used before. The timing of the album release is perfect, with Tuska Festival just around the corner, where we will also perform.”
