Description
Floating from Sweden are finding increasingly impressive ways to enrich death metal music with progressive and post punk influences. While their previous release turned heads, this new one is far more refined, confident and accomplished. The primary elements have their place in the music with none of it getting dislodged by the dominance of the other and that's where the beauty lies - there's a subtlety, an emotional fragility that comes through in death metal music, which usually sounds too tough and overbearing for the most part. Moreover, these unconventional influences aren't copy-pasted or arbitrarily introduced to heavy music; they're carefully gauged, treated and woven together in parts where the well-trodden death metal music would come alive. As a result, listening to this album is an absolute delight. It's fascinating to see how they've made sure that each of the songs stand out and that there's no fixed pattern that might just render their music predictable. "Hesitating Lights" is a thoughtfully composed, beautifully tempered album of bold, refreshing death metal music, which in these times, is no mean feat.
