Fallen Within - "Promo 2005"
[Self-financed, 2005]
Fallen Within - Promo 2005
Tracklist:
1. A Shade Of Eternal
2. Everfall
3. The Rotten Wheel

The Greeks Fallen Within seem to be working tenaciously enough, considering the short interval between these brand new compositions and their first effort. According to their words these 3-tracks promo is just a small sample of what it's to come pretty soon. To be more specific, the guys are actually working on their debut full-length release, but better check the interview they gave us for more info on the subject. Let's just stick to the music for the time being…

Listening to "Promo 2005" you understand that the band is ready to take this step for one thing and those of you that have heard their first demo can clearly notice the obvious progress they've made. They've worked harder on the compositional aspect this time and I'm sure they'll get to taste the fruits of their hard work pretty soon, while the production is very good and proves once again that Fallen Within's "metal" minds go like clockwork, taking one careful step after another.

…And now for the hard part. The "this" metal label I have to put on them. Well, they obviously move somewhere near melodic death metal or if you prefer NWOSDM, or just Swedish-like death metal or whatever, but definitely melodic and definitely death metal. I'm aware that Northern Europe is filled up with bands alike, but after listening to this promo stuff I am positive that there's room for one more, Southern this time. Same goes for your private collection and all labels out there, looking for fresh blood. I think this sextet deserves the chance of a decent worldwide promotion and if they have it, they'll certainly amaze us all. A strong asset of this promo is Bob Katsionis' participation on the keyboards.

Bottom-line:
Something's telling me that I'm witnessing the birth of a big band, that's hailing from my country. They just have to stay focused and keep working hard, following a methodical way of thinking. I'm anxiously waiting for their next step and for what I can tell, it might be the one that leads at the threshold of "Dreamland".
