Colossus Fall/Sempvirens/2013 EP Review


  Colossus  Fall  are  a  band  from  Switzerland  that  plays  a  mixture  of  sludge,  hardcore,  and  stoner  rock  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2013  ep  "Sempvirens".

  Drums  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  drumming  with  no  fast  playing  or  blast  beats  being  present on  this  recording,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars  and  at  times  they  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow  to  mid  paced  riffs  that  combine  sludge,  hardcore  and s toner rock together  to  create  a  sound  of t heir  own  with  a  good  amount  of  melodic  and  heavy  riffing  and  there  are  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present on t his  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  hardcore/sludge  style  yells  and  screams,  while  the  lyrics  cover  violent,  dark  and  everyday  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  for  being  a  self  released  recording  and  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on t his  ep.

  In  my  opinion  Colossus  Fall  are  a  very  great  and  heavy  sounding  hybrid  of  sludge,  metal,  hardcore  and  stoner  rock  and  if  you  are  a f an  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Human  Shield"  and  "Kill  The  Shepherd".   RECOMMENDED  BUY.
