│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ As autumn falls across the northern hemisphere, ║ │
│║ many start to turn their minds to Halloween, a ║ │
│║ ghoulish tradition that never fails to beguile. ║ │
│║ And what other release date besides All Hallows ║ │
│║ Eve would do for the unleashing of the ║ │
│║ bewitching debut of the diabolical DEVILMENT? ║ │
│║ Started in 2011 by guitarist Daniel Finch, and ║ │
│║ starring the notorious Dani Filth from CRADLE OF ║ │
│║ FILTH, no-one is really sure what to expect of ║ │
│║ this band, despite the fact that the recent ║ │
│║ release of ôMother Kaliö has whet several ║ │
│║ palettes, and has given curious fans an inkling ║ │
│║ of what to anticipate. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Starting off with a gentle guitar melody that ║ │
│║ swells into a melancholic yet stunning lead ║ │
│║ guitar section, ôSummer Arteriesö slowly ease ║ │
│║ the listener in, washing away all woes. This ║ │
│║ soon gives way to a very electronic tinged ║ │
│║ blitzkrieg that drags you under. DaniÆs ║ │
│║ distinctive vocals are immediately recognisable, ║ │
│║ albeit sticking to more guttural growls than the ║ │
│║ caterwauling screeches he is more commonly known ║ │
│║ for. This song is fresh and cheeky, quite ║ │
│║ probably breaking any preconceptions fans might ║ │
│║ hold. In comparison to this, ôThe Stake in My ║ │
│║ Heartö is a whirling onslaught that has a vague ║ │
│║ DEVILDRIVER melody to it in certain sections. ║ │
│║ Positively oozing undeniable groove-laden charm, ║ │
│║ this track insinuated its way into my mind, ║ │
│║ becoming perhaps one of my favourite tracks on ║ │
│║ the album. This takes a rapid about-turn, with ║ │
│║ the title of the following track ôLiving With ║ │
│║ The Fungusö reminding me of a sexually ║ │
│║ transmitted disease, and (at the cost of making ║ │
│║ this analogy worse) is about as infectious as ║ │
│║ one to boot. Nevertheless, this is soon ║ │
│║ forgotten as the oriental feel adopted in ║ │
│║ ôMother Kaliö captivates, adding a whole unique ║ │
│║ flavour to the overall album, making it another ║ │
│║ highlight of ôThe Great and Secret Showö whilst ║ │
│║ paying tribute to the Hindu goddess. Whittled ║ │
│║ down from 15 tracks to just the 11 that are on ║ │
│║ ôThe Great and Secret Showö, you can tell that ║ │
│║ this album stems from a wide range of music ║ │
│║ tastes. Some moments of almost ROB ZOMBIE-esque ║ │
│║ Hard Rock shine through, whilst in other ║ │
│║ Bluesy-type guitars take the fore, and in other ║ │
│║ sections Industrial undertows spice things up. ║ │
│║ The penultimate song ôLaudanum Skullö has ║ │
│║ melodic parts that remind me of earlier ║ │
│║ DEATHSTARS, although shaded with a much heavier ║ │
│║ sound.s ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Amalgamating elements of horror tinged heaviness ║ │
│║ countered by soft keyboard melodies and female ║ │
│║ backing vocals DEVILMENT does have much in ║ │
│║ common with CRADLE OF FILTH in many aspects, but ║ │
│║ it does also have its differences: the lyrical ║ │
│║ theme in CRADLE OF FILTHÆs songs is more poetic ║ │
│║ and elaborate, the sound is thicker thanks to ║ │
│║ more layered work, and the overall feel has a ║ │
│║ gothic-tinge to it. With DEVILMENT on the other ║ │
│║ hand, the instrumental sections have been taken ║ │
│║ down a notch, allowing DaniÆs voice to take ║ │
│║ centre stage for much of the album. Indeed, some ║ │
│║ people may even go as far as to say that this ║ │
│║ album is Dani-centric side project, with a few ║ │
│║ other instruments thrown in to give his voice ║ │
│║ some backing. However, this would be an unfair ║ │
│║ assessment: whilst DaniÆs inclusion in this ║ │
│║ project has unequivocally boosted its fame, the ║ │
│║ skill and musical know-how of each of the other ║ │
│║ musicians is utterly indisputable. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ In short, this is a fun, catchy, and release; it ║ │
│║ was not at all what I imagined it would be, ║ │
│║ although truth be told, I didnÆt quite know what ║ │
│║ to expect anyway. However, if CRADLE OF FILTHÆs ║ │
│║ music is a bit too tame for you, this is perhaps ║ │
│║ one beast best left alone. On the other hand, if ║ │
│║ you like to kick back with something new. ║ │
