review: the evil inquisition über "HAUSGEIST"

THANX to the author!
originaltext >>>click<<< ##################### Blistering blast beats, gruelling urgent vocals and fast pro-active drumming to blow your ears off, this is what you would expect from any decent self conscious German Melodic Death Metal band. Whilst 'My Cold Embrace' show their technical prowess on every track as well as their ability to bombast their captive audience with a solid wall of noise and aggression, there is little variety on offer, that is until you get to 'No More Headtrips' which slows down the pace, takes down the brutality and plays with your senses for a few moments before the usually style kicks back in with a serious vengeance. I think to have a problem with this 'Kassel' based five piece would be a terribly odd thing and what they concoct is satisfying and very well executed. Some may say there is a occasionally a slight lack of direction or maybe a need for more hooks or creativity but on the whole this does what it sets out to do, destroy, kill and Mame on a gigantic level!
