Lunatic Gods from Slovakia was formed in 1994 and has since
then worked their way through several labels before ending up on the native
Shindy Productions for the release of their third full-length album. While
most bands from Eastern Europe are fairly stuck on being as brutal as possible
to outdo their American role models this is a band who have decided to carve
out their own niche. Lunatic Gods is still a pretty brutal band at times,
especially as it comes to the growling vocals, but they have incorporated lots
of atmospheric passages like symphonic keyboard arrangements and clean vocals,
making their music sound very good and, above all, very interesting. They
sound like a mix of Deicide (the brutal side), Testament (some thrashier
moments) and Opeth (melancholic melodies and clean vocals) you might say. In
fact, Lunatic Gods is one of the most interesting bands from Eastern Europe
that I've been able to hear during the last couple of years. There are for
sure more good bands out there but they seem to have trouble spreading their
music throughout the world. If you want to listen to something that is both
atmospheric and energetic at the same time this is a good choice. Just listen
to the "Wilderness trilogy" at the end and you will hear one of the best and
most avantgarde death metal songs ever
made.
