Reviews: At the minute I'm working through a bit of a backlog of things that have been sent to us while I was MIA. This is one of them, a really beautiful EP by From Oceans To Autumn called The Flood/The Fall. They play Post Metal with mega influences from Shoegaze. I'm getting more and more into this the more I hear it. This is definitely going to be played for a long time to come by me. ~ Veins Dried Out This is a new e.p. from an instrumental
shoegazing metal band on Silber Records. Good Stuff!
From Oceans to Autumn is an instrumental
drone/post metal band that brings us a 2 track, 18 minute EP titled The
Flood/The Fall. Reviewing this actually provides some interesting challenges,
as I’m not particularly well versed in post metal, and only being a 2 song
EP, it has different goals from the traditional album. Let’s see what we
can say though about this release. Firstly, the two tracks are about 9
minutes each, and run together fairly nicely. For the length of the EP
and the general level of variety, I can’t criticize it for being dull or
same-y, nor can I call it dry. The atmosphere of the music is very well
achieved and expressed. It’s a bit creepy, a bit dreamy, and the soundscaping
is done masterfully. In particular, the bass work on the album is, while
not a technical masterpiece, a perfect fit for the rhythm, and a huge presence
in the music.
From Oceans To Autumn is a band that's
been around awhile, and if your after something to take a break from the
monotony of the worlds intensity and insanity and just zone out a bit.
I find myself listening to these songs all the way through, then wishing
they would go on for an hour or two. They got like really adept at using
echos or something here, with a little hint that yeah we still have loud
guitars in there. Anyway, I like them and wouldn't be putting
One of the latest additions to the
Silber roster, with these two tracks being offered by way of an intro to
the band. Recommended for those that like label-mates Irata, or anyone
who likes energetic, instrumental music.
From Oceans to Autumn è il progetto
musicale del duo americano di Charlotte, Nord Carolina, formato nell'estate
del 2006 e composto precisamente da Brandon Helms alla chitarra, Robert
Knight al basso, accompagnati da Eddie Daniel alla batteria e Allen Knight
ai keyboards.
