█ One of my absolute favorite anime is Rurouni █
█ Kenshin. It's the tale of an ex-Samurai in Meiji █
█ Era Japan after the Samurai class was outlawed. It █
█ doesn't follow the story line that I would █
█ personally conceive. Akira Kurosawa could never █
█ have written this tale. Kurosawa-sama was a teller █
█ of traditional tales in the mold of the Samurai, █
█ even when telling western inspired tales, like █
█ Throne of Blood, but I do go on don't I? █
█ █
█ Today I'm looking at a new band from Italy, █
█ Psychotomy. █
█ █
█ I'll be honest. It me about two or three passes on █
█ that name to figure out how to pronounce it. █
█ Formed in the heady days of 2010, Antinomia is █
█ their debut album. It was preceded by only an EP █
█ in 2012. Their patience has paid off and in my █
█ hands and ears, I have their first full length █
█ album. █
█ The first track is an insane interview with serial █
█ killer Aileen Wournos. Her insane rantings █
█ continue on into the second track as █
█ well....before the metal begins. They clearly █
█ wanted to set a creepiness factor on the first █
█ track and then toppled it on the second track. █
█ Between the guttural vocals, blast beat rhythms, █
█ detuned snare drums, and 7 string guitar riffs, █
█ something else happened. Instead of being straight █
█ blast, there's a second element that rears its █
█ head from time to time. █
█ The guitar solos lack the straight up shred of █
█ Marty Friedman, the looseness of Kerry King, but █
█ have the backbone of Daisy Berokwitz. When the █
█ guitars are riffing and the drums thundering, in █
█ comes this strange guitar solo that will raise the █
█ hair on the back of your neck. Psychotomy is a █
█ member of no scene. They are death metal, but █
█ they're not traditional death metal. When a band █
█ can step outside of the well worn box and tell a █
█ different story, but with the same themes, it █
█ becomes something of its own. Deicide could never █
█ write this album. They are traditional death █
█ metal. █
█ █
█ Psychotomy, they're something different. █
