"Unusual"
is the latest work of this Hungarian
Band that is distributed and aims
to spread the name of the band around
the world. "Unusual" is
the right description of the music
of the band. You see Aebsence aren't
following any well-defined music idiom
out, especially those that are common-used.
In fact their music is hard to be
compared with many other band's one.
"Unusual" is somewhere between
heavy rock and prog/folk. Its basis
is powerful heavy rock with expressive
vocals enhanced with some prog rock
interludes and folk elements. It is
this "Unusual" mixture that
makes you remind sometimes System
of a Down of the latest album, Soundgarden,
Mayfair (these Swiss prog/rock alchemists)
and the German originated unknown
band of Twelve after Elf (back in
the mid 90's). All these are the positive
elements of "Unusual" that
are quite attractive indeed. But this
release has some negative points,
too. From a point and on this release
is driving you boring and you've got
the sense that is repeating the same
tunes. The production is ideal ; they
have done a very good work, and if
I wanted to discriminate some songs
as the best ones I would choose all
the songs of the first half of the
album. If they can work out on the
issue of repetition and resolve it,
then I'm sure that their next release
will leave us speechless. As far as
goes for "Unusual"… |
