Wow,
minilo je kar nekaj časa odkar sem slišal kakšno novejšo izdajo
te založbe. Govorim o švedski Bridge Records, o založbi, ki me za
enkrat še z z nobeno svojo izdajo ni razočarala, kar je seveda bil
več kot dober razlog za nabavo te zgoščenke. Roswell (pred leti
sem bil ful nor na istoimensko nadaljevanko) prihajajo iz kje drugje
kot iz švedske, kar seveda ni mogoče zgrešiti glede na to, da ima
bend tisti tipečen švedski hardcore zvok kot so ga imeli njihovi
rojaki par let nazaj, ko je bila švedska hardcore scene še na svojem
vrhuncu. Na zgoščenki boste našli močan in energisko nabit hardcore
v stilu Breach, Eclipse, itd. kjer prevladuje silovit midtempo ritem
in bolj temačna, melanholična sorta rifov ter melodij. Včasih je
narahlo čutiti kakšne bolj rock'n'roll vplive, večkrat in močneje
pa njihovo metalsko nagnjenost. Glasba deluje precej skrivnostno
in dostikrat atmosferično, kar mi je zelo vseč. Vokal je ves čas
nabrušeno kričeč, v komadu ''Queen demise'' pa se oglasi tudi lepo
žensko petje. Digipack izgleda uredu, čeprav bi lahko bil dosti
boljši, ce bi bila slika malo bolj izostrena. Prikazuje skrivnostno
pokrainsko sliko v rumno-zelenih barvah. Besedila so zapisana v
fragmentalni obliki in so večinoma nejasna...bolj redokobesedna
in nič kaj posebnega, čeprav znajo biti nekatera tudi zanimiva:
''Why god/ why not/ we await your blessing/ here comes/ gods will/
their will/ my blessing/ deliveraence of mercy/ deliverance of destruction/
barren grounds/ nature resets/ mission accomplished/ all prayers
answered''. Zadovoljen? Itak! Za tale bend bom defenitivno imel
odprte oči kar se tiče prihodnjih izdaj!

Version:
Wow, it passed a few years since I heard any new release from this
label. I'm talking about Swedish Bridge Records, a label that hasn't
disappointed me with any of it's releases yet, which was a good
reason why I picked this up. Of course, Roswell (I was crazy on
same named serial few years ago) are from Sweden and there's no
way you couldn't notice that since they have this typical swedish
hardcore sound their fellows had few years ago, when the hardcore
scene there was still huge. You will found herein heavy and energetically
loaded hardcore similar to Breach, Eclipse, etc. where dominate
forcefull midtempo rhythms and obscure/melancholic kind of riffs
and melodies. Sometimes they thrown in some slightly rock'n'roll
infuences but more frequently they just show their metal tendencies.
Music works very mysterious and atmospheric which I really enjoy.
Vocals are honed screaming except for the ''Queen demise'' where
a nice female singing appears. Digi-pack looks fine, though it could
be much better if the picture was just a little bit sharpen. It
shows mystrious landscape in yellow-green colours. Lyrics are written
fragmentally and mostly indistinct...nothing too exciting but some
of them are quite interesting: ''Why god/ why not/ we await your
blessing/ here comes/ gods will/ their will/ my blessing/ deliveraence
of mercy/ deliverance of destruction/ barren grounds/ nature resets/
mission accomplished/ all prayers answered''. Satisfied? No doubt!
I will definitelly keep an eye on this band future releases!
