OBLYVION Melodic Death Metal Tuscania, Viterbo, Italia MySpace Afterlife (EP) (2011)  Quote Afterlife is the first release from this new Italian Melodic Death Metal band, but you’d never know it. I have nearly zero information on these guys, but they must have been in some other bands before this, or they’ve spent their entire lives so far practicing their instruments, because they’re very impressive. The amazing recording and sound quality really allow the complexities of the music to be heard, from the bass to the well-integrated keyboards, and everything else. Ranging from intense to moody and melancholy, this EP never fails to impress, especially considering that as far as I can tell, it’s the debut of a previously unheard-of band. Oblyvion "hide” a cover of Iron Maiden’s "Fear of the Dark” after the last song (why not make it its own track?), and it is musically dead on, with the added bonus of more intense drumming. It can be difficult for Death Metal growls to sound good with something like an Iron Maiden cover, but Vincenzo’s raspy snarl somehow seems to fit. I can hardly wait to hear what Oblyvion can do with a full-length album. Hopefully I’ll find out soon. - Ray  |
