Although SYLOSIS had been formed about a decade ago, back in 2000, their fist album was released in 2008, showing already their potential in composing music. Edge Of The Earth is a charm, a proud continuation of "Conclusion Of An Age". Dynamic and heavy as hell, all the band-mates cooperate perfectly to have an album that won't let anyone get bored or indifferent. The guitar riffs and the drum playing are phenomenically repeated through the songs and look alike to each other, but this makes the album more compact rather than a plain copy of rhythms and melodies. If you ask me, what makes the album extinctive is the catchy guitar melodies (including the crazy solos and the greatly attached arpeggios), the speedy drum-playing and the diacritical bass line. All these won't unveil at once but through the time, as the album is played again and again and again...
There is not much time to relax while listening to Edge Of The Earth; that's probably the main con that may bother one that is not that familiar with that music genre. But it's never too late to make a fresh start!! You can easily give it a try.
My favourite songs on the album:
- Empyreal (Part 1)
- Awakening
- Apparitions
- Sands Of Time
8/10
