| | Review Summary: A very dark musical and lyrical trip that |
| | progresses the bandÆs vision without losing any of their |
| | originality. |
| | |
| | On their sophomore album, Oi Magoi, Hail Spirit Noir created a |
| | truly original album, blending black metal and psychedelic |
| | progressive rock. It was a true work of art, which reminded us that |
| | by tastefully mixing genres, great albums are born. Where do you go |
| | from there, though? |
| | |
| | Mayhem in Blue, while not discarding the avant-gardish dark style |
| | of music that made Hail Spirit Noir so extravagantly unique, stands |
| | completely in its own right pushing the theatrical element to the |
| | extreme. The new album relies heavier in effects while in the same |
| | time the structure of the songs became more straightforward: Spoken |
| | parts in Greek, a variety of horrifying sounds and bizarre |
| | instruments like didgeridoo, humdrum or barrel organ set up a |
| | majestic yet dark ambience in almost every song. Again, labeling |
| | their music in any way is something Hail Spirit Noir refuses to do. |
| | |
| | There is a subtle and addictive paradox in Hail Spirit NoirÆs |
| | latest work. One would expect that extending the theatrical |
| | elements on Mayhem in Blue would take its heavy toll on heaviness, |
| | which is clearly not the case. It seems that the band decided to |
| | take every aspect of their music a bit further. Yes, there are more |
| | mellow acoustic parts and clean operatic singing than in the past, |
| | but when the band decides to lay out the riffs, they are heavier |
| | than ever before. While the instrumentation is remarkably varied, |
| | the songs never lose their focus or drag out aimlessly. Everything |
| | is there for a reason. |
| | |
| | The opening sequence and sharp riffing of I mean you harm picks up |
| | from where the last album concluded, creating a certain groove that |
| | screams to be reproduced live, while itÆs fast playful rhythm |
| | carefully paves the way for the blunt spoken and effective chorus. |
| | Clearly the band means us harm. A sudden change in pace in the |
| | eponymous track is meant to catch off guard the unsuspecting |
| | listener and it works brilliantly. Like a poisonous snake that |
| | hypnotizes its victim, Mayhem in Blue is a spaced out, acoustic |
| | opus that showcases its great charm using a structured interplay of |
| | clean singing and brutal devilish growls. |
| | |
| | The undercurrent of impending threat in Riders to Utopia, unveils |
| | in the form of a menacing guitar lead and a monotonous yet dynamic |
| | drum beat. Although the shortest song of the album, the band is |
| | pulling no punches and unleashes its most addictive chorus. By the |
| | time Lost in SatanÆs charm begins, you find yourself lost inside |
| | the albumÆs peak and longest cut. The carnivalesque, freaky intro |
| | gives way to blackened riffing that drives the song in the most |
| | absurd way, mixing slow guitar parts with sudden rhythm changes and |
| | militaristic beat with energetic drumming. Running around 11 |
| | minutes, this carves a niche for larger epics for Hail Spirit Noir |
| | and the albumÆs highlight. The Cannibal tribes come from the Sea |
| | paints a gloomy atmosphere showcasing a cleverly used reverb effect |
| | that midway transforms into a hellish stream of layered guitar |
| | leads. Towards the end of the song, a well crafted short solo |
| | erupts into a violent blast beat, seconds before the closing number |
| | How to fly in Blackness tightens its mournful grip for one last |
| | time on the listener. |
| | |
| | This is a very dark musical and lyrical trip, affecting listeners' |
| | mind and soul as every great album should. It progresses the bandÆs |
| | vision without losing any of their originality and most probably, |
| | Mayhem in Blue will be like nothing you have heard this year. Above |
| | all, there is something special in watching a band evolve. Hail |
| | Spirit Noir has come a long way the last 5 years, getting a better |
| | grip of their art, song by song, album by album. Mayhem in Blue is |
| | their audacious step to become one of the best metal bands out |
| | there. Just listen. |
