Review:
Ennoea
are a self-proclaimed Stoner, Doom and Psychedelic Death Metal Band.
Influenced by bands such as YOB, Dark Castle, Sleep and High On Fire.
They have a very violent, loud and epic sound that will them many
admirers. Lead Vocalist – Samantha – has such a unique voice and
her Death Metal vocals are very powerful indeed. I originally though
I was listening to male lead singer. No offence – Samantha – but
your voice fucking rules on this release.
What
makes this band such a great one to check out is their style of Doom,
Stoner Metal and Death Metal riffs that gives them such a different
vibe compared to other bands.
Listening
To Silence will blow you entire world apart as it's a stunning 20
minute blast of hard-hitting riffs to crush your soul to. The opening
title track is an atmospheric and violent ride you won't easily
forget. Who says that Stoner Metal and Death Metal cannot exist in
the same context. Listening To Silence remind me of early YOB in so
many ways but still with their own great sound.
Samantha
wrote, played and recorded everything on this brilliant album. She is
one highly talented lady and I think she has a very bright future
indeed as she has written some incredible riffs that will have you
hooked in no time at all.
I
dare you not to rock with the untitled second track. It's a
nightmarish world with some powerful riffs ruling with an iron fist.
This is one track you will be listening to over and over again.
Definitely the Demo's stand out track. Though not too far behind for
that accolade is the final track – Ennoea. A slow-paced drone
influenced track with heavy slabs of Psych Stoner Metal/Doom Metal
riffs running through it's veins.
The
Demo is slightly under-produced but you can't deny the talent
involved. As this is excellent release that I hope to see popping up
on all of the other great Doom/Stoner Metal blogs. Ennoea definitely
have my attention. I can't wait to see what they release next. I am
expecting great things from Ennoea in the next few years or so. My
advice – Watch this space.
