Hell Songs Posted: 05 Nov 2010 08:36 PM PDT Hell Songs AVG. Rating 4.0 …this is indeed avant garde…although I have given this the mathcore tag many a time there is definetely something more experimental about this… …now I’m a real sucker for dissonant and diminished guitar sounds…which there is a plenty…and honestly I would buy it for the instrumentals alone…the drummer is fast…the guitars are squeaky and dirty…and the bassist sounds like a tremor… …but of course there is also talk of the vocals…now unlike their earlier work of Canada songs (tee hee I said canada) there is barely any screaming at all…but he takes to the poetic rambling of a theatre critic on the edge singing “I drew a portrait of how I’d look with my hands around my throat”…it’s very good to hear someone carry on the torch for nick cave and adds to the destruction of the guitars very percussively and poetically… …I think if you want a sample “Recorded inside a pyramid” would be the best example and can be listened to on their myspace…their hell involves horses? Wow… Hell Songs Overview If you’re not familiar with Providence, RI’s Daughters, ask yourself this: where the hell have you been? They’ve basically injected grind and all manners of extreme heaviness with a much-needed dose of lube, style, and danger. This is their second album, following 2003’s “Canada Songs”. “Spaz-core aficionados Daughters are always on the road, cramming peoples’ eye holes and ear holes with blasts of high-density noise”- Pitchforkmedia.com. “Excellent spastic grind and discordant chaos” – Lambgoat.com. Customer Reviews score! – M. Syvertsen – On this album, Daughters become even less accessible The vocal stylings of old have been totally overhauled to make way for a far more avant-garde, Antioch Arrow-esque approach, chock full of theatrical enunciation and dramatic proclamations. While Canada Songs was an excellently brief math-grind assault, Hell Songs is a lot more archetypically structured and bizarre, with some of the most unusual songs I’ve ever heard; mostly composed of shrill staccato bursts and arpeggiated noise riffs, the songs on this album have actually breached the 2 minute mark. I can’t really point out any standout tracks; this is one of those albums you should listen to from start to finish to truly appreciate (although the epic 6 minute Cheers Pricks is probably the bands best song to date). Reccomended for you adventurous types great album – Seth Werkheiser – Brooklyn, NY Bought this album after I saw the band for the first time. I love the ‘blah blah blah’ style of singing, and the guitar and bass work is amazing. A great album. Dont pay attention to any other reviews – P. Nagle – Upstate, NY This cd is musically great, vocally new and different from anything you would think this cd is. That is why its great, they took a chance and im sick of hearing bad reviews and how no one enjoyed it because it wasnt as the sun sets. Well guess what, this is Daughters. Not As The Sun Sets. They broke up and formed something new and different, and in my opinion something just as good. Buy this cd, listen to the cd and enjoy it. Dont be a idiot and expect music not to change. If you like Canada songs, listen to it. If you like as the sun sets listen to it, but open your doors and blast this cd top volume and just enjoy. *** Product Information and Prices Stored: Nov 05, 2010 22:36:44 See Also : Today’s Deals Shopping Mount Flat Screen Tv
