Hidden is a band that I know nothing about and that is just
the way they want it apparently. Red Stream will not give out any information
on the origin of the band or any other information on who they are. I respect
that, it's just that I find it to be a futile attempt to gain a little more
attention. What I do know is that this is the debut album from the band but
despite the mystical atmosphere around the band they will probably pass by
rather unnoticed unless they focus more on writing memorable songs for their
future releases. The album isn't bad at all but it never really takes off
which is a little sad because it does have its golden moments such as the
wonderful sixth track. The lyrics are very much scientifically influenced
which is something that the album cover from Jean Pascal Fournier gives away.
The band that comes to mind when listening to the dismal mix of death, doom
and black metal of Hidden is the first couple of albums from Katatonia. They
have the same melancholic sound and nice melodies but Hidden is a little
rougher and doesn't have the same taste for rhythm and song writing that
Katatonia did have. A most decent release but I want more from this band in
the future. Stand-out tracks: "A Bounded Span Of Time", "Spectral
Magnitude".
