SHADE EMPIRE - ZERO NEXUS (2008)

genre : symphonic industrial black
similar bands : Dagoba, Aborym
origin : Finland
strong spot : songwriting, performance, vocals, samples
weak spot : no obvious weak spot

Shade Empire have mastered their craft in this album. Industrial sounds in a hyperspeed black/death metal background with the right dose of experimentation (e.g. a saxophone is used in a track). A real pandemonium of chaotic drums, devastating bass lines and violent synths. Dark industrial harmony intertwined with death metal rawness. Finland has done it once again...
