Smashing.......2006-06-27
An attempt to describe this disc would be; abstract dissonant prog-metal played by some clever blokes who create unique songs that have varied moods and intricate changes. Anti-Depressive Delivery have their own sound and groove that is refreshing. The first time I heard this I was a little surprised, elated and amused all at once. After repeated listens, it just gets better. Hard to believe this is a debut release and with any luck, they will be around for a while.
New grounds in Prog!!!.......2006-06-12
Nowadays, it seams that prog and heavy are tight together for the glory of musical expansion and exploration. Prog cannot go only by keyboards anymore... and metal cannot go alone without some originality and tension release. Classic prog-metal bands, like Dream Theatre, set the "standards" for this new style, and TONS of other bands just go along. By that I mean more complex, more melodies, etc. Simply put, just the same again. Now, it seams that only extreme bands excite me: Cynic was obviously one of them (talk about delicious extremes), or on the prog side, Porcupine Tree is an excellent example... Very few bands nowadays, incorporate the ideal of the 70's, into a real modern frame. The 70's were, and still are where the music expended to infinite directions... musicians had this drive of exploration that very few people have today. Nowadays, this barely exists. Well... not anymore. A new band, I just discovered, not even listed in great prog archives web sites, simply do the music I have not heard in years. This band is Anti-Depressive Delivery (ADD). Listening to their first album, is like taking a ride in crazy, uncharted territories of absolutly excellent prog... and fantastic metal riff and drumming. ADD mixes very modern metal ideas, like Death, Cynic, and others, with ELP-Genesis-Gentle Giant ish stuff... I mean by that, an explosion of metal riffs, with keyboards reminescent of the bands I mentioned. The resuls is absolutly fascinating: weird compositions, quite complex, with a fantastic production. As people have mentioned before, some songs might have been part of a selling england by the pound, or a in a glass house album. Some of their songs got this soul groove to them, which gives the album a unique touch. For the first time in years, ADD show that we can mix together different grooves with excellent musicianship, without falling in ANY clichés. And I mean ANY.
ADD's music can be melodic, fast, very catchy. The first few listens you will do with ADD album will be like a total surprise... It is not difficult to get into it, in fact it is easy and quite enjoyable. Their sounds is straighforward, and quite catchy. It's just that every time you will listen to it, you will grab something different and new.
Go buy this immediatly, if you like 70's prog music, and very complex metal. Nothing on earth sound like them. Nothing! Finally a real prog metal masterpiece (and nothing to do with Dream Theater clones). Those guys really deserve to be better known, for they do what prog is all about: new weird and exciting music!!!
Ingenius.......2005-11-17
this album just keeps growing, I`ve had it since it came out in europe, and in the beginning I thought it was great, but now i think it is simply ingenius. It stands out in my rather huge collection of contemporary prog metal/rock, and I can`t say this enough times, buy this album and support these truly innovative artist in the prog field.... It is strange and beatifull. And take a close look at the lyrics as well, whip your social awareness!
