CHECK OUT THAT BAND !!!
Agnes Vein is a Greek band which was formed two decades ago. Having released only three full lengths within this time span probably has not helped gather a bit more attention – which is a shame given the passion and love for details they put into their work. “Deathcall” is their third album with eight years having gone by since the previous one “Soulship”. To be honest this is my first foray into their work so I cannot give any comparisons, but sometimes it anyway is better to review a record all on its own without references to past efforts. Six tracks adding up to 47 minutes of running time make up for a quite meaty affair and I have to give credit Agnes Vein for having filled each moment with meaningful content. The whole album just feels perfectly crafted and edited, there is more or less no filler material left in the end product.

Their music is slow, most of the time stumbling along an ill-light path, but there are sections which push the rhythm section a bit more and bri ... See More
