Free Music Notes for Dark Ages
Free Music Review: Darker days ahead ?
Hit: 5 Stars
From the moment Max Cavalera was out from the band he fronted for more than 10 years (Sepultura, of course...), he was facing the dilemma that pursues anyone who steps aside from an established act. He could stick to the proven formula (after all he was the principal songwriter of the band) and continue working in his familiar style. Otherwise, he could build his new band from scratch. He chose another part - taking the modus operandi of the last Sepultura albums Chaos A.D. and Roots - he broadened and expanded it, further establishing the tribe-metal style. However the first lineup of this outfit lacked the crucial ingredients for further buildup. The major drawback was absence of a stable lead guitarist. The only constant bandmember these years was the bass player Marcello Diaz (former Sepultura roadie).
Prior to the recording of the Prophecy album Max came with the inevitable change. Entered ex-Ill Nino flamenco-shredder Marc Rizzo. For me he is complimenting Max the Riffmeister much better than Sepultura axeman Andreas Kisser. Their teamwork proved itself well in the band's two last outputs.
Dark Ages is the most recent Soulfly record, released in 2005. The overall vibe is very much Sepultura-like, pushing forward thrashing riffs instead of decorating with them fusion experiments that were prominent on previous releases. Outstanding songs for me would be I and I that fuses Max's trademark diesel riffs with a nice mellow passage, solid thrashers Babylon, Carved Inside, and Arise Again (a nod to the Sepultura glory days?). Several misses I found here are: the stupid singing in Russian on Molotov song (F^&*k the war, maneuvers are the main thing -?!!!!) that is pretty lame anyway, the familiar tribal drumming and chanting about Zumbi the hero - we've been in this movie already. Finally, the too long instrumental Soulfly V. In general, this is the finest Soulfly album (apart from its predecessor maybe - the excellent Prophecy). Hopefully this lineup of the band will produce more great music!!!
