Unearthly Trance - Season of Seance, Science of Silence - [The Music Cartel]
Playing with maximum restraint is harder than itprobably seems, and with sections slow enough for
short songs by happier bands to run in the gaps,
Unearthly Trance spare no ragged breath showing
listeners how vile they can be. In fact, Rion
Lipynsky, considers his singing to simply be
“vokills”, and the other two-thirds of
this Long Island metal group play their
instruments in ways more akin to cathartic
retribution in a dark alley late at night than
the head-banging typicality of their peers. Drum
sets and various guitars are physically
assaulted, so, inevitably, the storeroom of spare
equipment is threadbare by the eighth and final
track on the album.
