Solution .45 – Nightmares In the Waking State – Part II

[nyrating]

“Nightmares In The Waking State – Part II” is in fact not a ‘new’ album, in the strict sense of the word. Both Part I and II were actually recorded at the same time, as ‘one’ long album, but since the band didn’t want to release it as a regular double album, they decided to split it into two separate releases instead, to make it a bit more interesting.

Compared to Part I maybe Part II has a slightly more melodic touch. In general however there are no big musical differences. Grunting styles varied with clean singing and music in the vein of Scar Symmetry and Soilwork. Again some fine melodies in the songs make it very interesting. Readers who like the first part will also like the second part. For the rest I haven’t a lot more to tell you about this new release.

I could write down a lot of the same comments I did in the review of Part I, but I just give you the link: http://powerofmetal.dk/2015/11/solution-45-nightmares-in-the-waking-state-part-1/

Once a metal head, always a metalhead. My parents thought it would only be a period, but they were wrong. I quit to explain the beauty of metal music to others that are not into metal, because it is something you can't tell in words... It is like explaining to a teetotaller why a cold beer is so nice on a hot day... I started with bands like Accept, Metal Church, Iron Maiden and Metallica in the eighties and I think I will still listen to them when I'm stone deaf and old...
