Chaos Vector - Demiurge

Chaos Vector - Demiurge

Chaos Vector's debut, Eskhaton was a solid piece of industrial darksynth. I thought it was a solid debut from a promising new artist. The atmosphere was thick, mechanical, brooding, and menacing. It definitely captured the cyber-apocalypse mood the album was aiming towards. It did have its flaws, however. It was a bit monotonous and repetitive. It mainly played with one idea throughout the song and the ideas between each song didn't vary too much. Don't let that dissuade you from listening to Eskhaton, though. It's still very good.

Demiurge sees Chaos Vector expanding his sound in the best way possible. The production is better. It's thicker, richer, and fuller. The rythm section seems to have more boom. Everything blends together quite nicely and loudly. For heavy darksynth, this is suitable and even excellent.

The overall music has been improved as well. Each song is injected with a dose of melody and an assortment of sounds and effects for greater engagement and an even denser atmosphere. It truly sounds like a cybernetic horror film set in a future dystopia. Not only that, but it seems like there's more variation in tempo between songs. The tempo is still rather slow and brooding overall, however. It does fit the style of music nicely, but I think it would be nice to see more variation within each song.

Demiurge is a very welcomed improvement to what was already a good formula. We can look forward to more music coming from Chaos Vector. Cool name, by the way.

World's End

World's End In a clash of melancholy, The world will end. All the flowers of the Earth shall burn into a crisp. The fish of the sea, the birds, and the trees all die as one with humanity. Tossed into oblivion eternity of nothing thrown into emptiness. Will we be born again? The world set ablaze a fire in the sky. Inferno consumes the land All perish; die. Weep not for the critters or your loved ones. Today is the day we all meet the same fate Tossed into oblivion, eternity of nothing, thrown into emptiness, Will we be born again? In a clash of melancholy, The world will end. All the flowers of the Earth shall burn into a crisp. The fish of the sea, the birds, and the trees All die as one with humanity.

Muh Aztec Ancestors

Actually, as much as Mexicans love to believe that they where Aztecs, they where most likely the slaves to the Aztecs. Hell, they probably helped Cortez destroy Tenochtitlan. Come to think of it, the Aztecs weren't even native to Mexico. They came from somewhere up north. Utah, perhaps. They arrived, colonized, conquered,and enslaved dozens of other tribes. It was these subjugated tribes that joined ranks with the Conquistadors. So there you go. The Aztecs where evil colonizers and oppressors and the Conquistadors where liberators. Stop larping as an Aztec and start larping as a Conquistador.

Dreamhour - Now That We Are Here

Dreamhour - Now That We Are Here I first heard of Dreamhour when I listened to the album VLLNS . I think it's a wonderful album full of killer grooves and catchy melodies. My favorite tracks included "Cerebral Chase" with it's smooth chorus and both "Blood Patrol" and "Shobdohin" with its sexy guitar and synth lines. I cannot say I enjoy the follow, PROPSTVR as much. For whatever reason, that album simply didn't vibe with me. Maybe it's because the theme of VLLLNS is just way cool, and in having a cool theme, it generated cool music. What's not to like about a story involving a megacity vampire cult? We're not here to talk about those two albums. We're here for Now That We Are Here . There a few songs on this album that give me PROPSTVR vibes, such as the first two songs. Naturally, I can't fully appreciate these songs. Other songs contain quite good synth melodies, but are less tha...
