I rarely listen to bands from Australia, not
because I don't like them but because they are often very hard to find here
in Europe. When you get to hear an album like this one from a band called
Alarum that has been alive since 1992 you realize what you have been missing
out on. "Fluid Motion" shows a band with amazing technical precision, a fair
amount of creativity and the ambition to achieve something. Mixing together
the power of crushing death metal with the ambience of jazz and chilling
blues. As you probably realize by now this is a very complex and ever-changing
album where you can find influences from such diverse bands as Atheist and
King Crimson. This is also what makes Alarum so interesting. Even though you
are not a big fan of death metal there is a chance you will still be able to
enjoy this album because there are so much more to it. Structured chaos,
ambient atmosphere and intensity are words that fit well when describing what
Alarum sound like. I don't like the clean vocals very much but otherwise this
is a good progrock meets death metal
album.
