DAARCHLEA - SUNS

DAARCHLEA - SUNS

I already heard about this band around 2009 on popular social network MySpace (at that time). At that time they played dark/gothic metal with great influence from Cradle Of Filth. Hailed from Cheras, Kuala Lumpur this band still alive and now you guys see that i'm writing about their 1st album. Okay, i bought this album by sending email to them. Wow! they use ENGLISH and its sounds like a "pak cik korporat konglomerat" something like that! Haha! Professional!! 

I heard the promo video from YOUTUBE and i was hooked by their latest music. Its improved so much! No more (at least) gothic, its Death Metal!! But... in this album, the promo track on YOUTUBE "The Great Extinction" are little different to compared with in this CD. Okay, the vocal are variety. Just like rojak, so many kind of style. Yes, i respect Daarchlea vocalist, from black metal-ish kind of vocal to grindcore-ish kind of vocal. And dont forget the backup vocal too. Its AWESOME. The guitar tune are so heavy and melodic. Superb! The drumming are most likely Vital Remains, Revenant (i must agree with this!) and Morbid Angel if you want me to compared with. Insane! Keyboard are not too overwhelming, a great uses to create a dark yet harmony atmosphere. Seriously, when i heard it for the first time, SNAP! TICK! i thinking of SEPTICFLESH. Yes! I think there's many band out there try to blend this kind of music. If you like Obtenebris, Chthonic, Septicflesh, this is the album you need to hear! On track "Ascend To Arasy" you can hear clearly the sound of kompang! And that track is also a "kin" to their previous song (in their LIVE PROMO releases) called "Seeping Dher Blod From Herr" Oh my goat, its so epic! So delicious! I keep the track running many times before its arrived at the "The Great Extinction". To put it in one word; its Symphonic Progressive Melodic Black Death Metal, ALL TRACK ARE KILLER, NOT FILLER. I am simply fall in love for this album. Daarchlea try to find their own style and trying to reach the originality of Daarchlea. They almost reach it. Great! Awesome!

I really recommended you guys out there, BUY THIS ALBUM! BUY IT! BUY IT! Its the best!
