THURISAZ - CIRCADIAN RHYTHM (2007)


genre : melodic, atmospheric death/black
similar bands : Graveworm, Katatonia, Amorphis
origin : Belgium
strong spot: songwriting, variety in vocals
weak spot : some riffs and melodies are too common

As soon as I read the name of the band I thought ''omg, this is one of these crap bands with difficult names'' but fortunately I was wrong. Thurisaz do not play sth I haven't heard before but they are very capable of writing good songs. Even though the songs sound somehow similar to each other,''Circadian Rhythm'' has extremely few boring moments and manages to maintain the listener's interest. Imagine amorphis being a little more melancholic and you've got the picture. Amazing songs: ''Falling'', ''Point of no return'',''Switch to red''.

8,5 out of 10 goatheads
