DAEMUSINEM (ITA)


"Daemusinem domine empire" (2002) [Cold Blood Industries] 39:43 8 tracks
Daemusinem proposes us a well played but a bit standard death/black metal that is more successful and enjoyable in the fast parts than in the more melodic ones.
The band’s members show high skills both in playing and in the songwriting, still they could improve few elements with their next release: first of all, the vocalist should find out a more suitable way of singing as the screams vocals are a bit too harsh and I didn’t enjoy the clean vocals at all (why he tried to sound like Attila Csihar?); last but not least, the weak recordings follow a deep-rooted Italian tradition: will any Italian band be able to get rid of this kind of Achilles’ heel without passing the frontier to record their release?
