│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Listening to the first song on this demo CD by ║ │
│║ Gwyllion, I thought I would bump into yet ║ │
│║ another gothic metal band, only this time with a ║ │
│║ bit more power maybe. I must admit, that I was ║ │
│║ absolutely wrong. The second song "Strings Of ║ │
│║ Fate" sounds so much different (read: better) ║ │
│║ than opener "Trinity" and it felt like lightning ║ │
│║ struck me. The opening riffs and progressive ║ │
│║ speed changes easily caught my attention and ║ │
│║ fullfilled me with great excitement. And it is ║ │
│║ there, when you start to listen to their music ║ │
│║ with different eyes. "Curse Of The Wise" has a ║ │
│║ sphereful opening and contains a powerful riff. ║ │
│║ "Forever Me (You Are)" is a ballad-type of song, ║ │
│║ starting with the sound of piano strings. "Once ║ │
│║ Upon A Lifetime" is the perfect turnover to ║ │
│║ power and craziness at headbanging speed. What ║ │
│║ an immense adrenaline kick! Their powerful songs ║ │
│║ are the absolute proof, that Gwyllion sounds ║ │
│║ very different than all the average bands you ║ │
│║ hear in general. And if youÆre not convinced ║ │
│║ yet, just listen to the total musical madness ║ │
│║ that the band spreads in a song called "Running ║ │
│║ Together". Just perfect! ItÆs simply impossible ║ │
│║ to compare them to other bands. ItÆs the madness ║ │
│║ of Majesty, before they became Dream Theater. ║ │
│║ The lunatic input could very well come from ║ │
│║ musical geniusses like Steve Vai or Frank Zappa. ║ │
│║ ItÆs by far the best song for me, next to "Once ║ │
│║ Upon A Lifetime". "Lost In A Dream" contains a ║ │
│║ spoken part in the midst of the song. These ║ │
│║ words were taken from poems by Edgar Allen Poe. ║ │
│║ Yes, Gwillion know their classics, as you can ║ │
│║ see. The sudden mood change is unexpected and ║ │
│║ therefore very exciting. Slowly, it takes this ║ │
│║ song to a beautiful climax. The demo closes with ║ │
│║ a song called "Helpless", which is more in the ║ │
│║ gothic metal style with some progressive parts ║ │
│║ to it and a little more power. Gwyllion has ║ │
│║ opened my eyes, what a magnificent band! Line ║ │
│║ up: Annelore Vantomme on vocals, Martijn ║ │
│║ Debonnet on guitars and backing vocals, Steve ║ │
│║ Deleu on guitars, Thomas Halsberghe bass guitar, ║ │
│║ Joris Debonnet on keys and backing vocals and ║ │
│║ Wouter Debonnet on drums, percussion and flute. ║ │
