Dissimulation: Atiduokit mirusius
24/11/08 || Euthanatos
Just a few minutes ago I wrote a review for a Lithuanian band, claiming it was cool that a band from such a place was getting the word out on the scene. Well, it seems there are a whole bunch of Lithuanian bands (as one would expect), and Dissimulation is one more. Playing blackened thrash metal, the band certainly seems to have what it takes to make some ripples in the metal ocean. God, that was tacky.
Anyway, the album’s tracks differ a lot from one another, and that’s good. Some songs are more black metal, others are thrashier, some have a strong death metal influence. All those different atmospheres are very becoming, and made me enjoy the album a lot. Even though Dissimulation consists only of a trio, at least on the record I can’t say I miss anything. The guitars have the right amount of in-your-faceness, the bass gets a well-deserved spot, and the drums are pretty fucking solid. So, all in all, something that deservedly gets to be called power trio. And, along with some great riffs, you get cut-throat vocals, that range from pure screams to blackish rasps.
The album is short, though, clocking in at little less than 40 minutes, and that’s a shame, because the music here definitely got me thirsting for more. I sure hope Dissimulation won’t take another three years to release another album, as has been the case between previous releases.
Hail Satan, brosefs.
P.S. My only beef with these guys is they don’t have a website. What in the fuck? Who in this day and age doesn’t have at least a MySpace? Fuck that.
The cover: It’s just an upside down black cross in a white background. Ironically, it really stands out.
7 Lithuanian beards out of 10.
