REVIEW: Soul Destruction - Descend The Trend (EP) Self-financed, 2000
8/10
Soul Destruction - Descend The Trend (EP) - cover art When I first was about to listen to the Soul Destruction cd I expected just another demo with lousy production and average sounding music but I was up for a big surprise. Imagine mixing Fear Factory, Machine Head and Rage Against The Machine (R.I.P.) into one single entity with a spicey touch of trip-hop and techno sounds and you will have a pretty adequate description of what the music on this self-financed promo cd sounds like. The two British guys who make up Soul Destruction have been surrounded by suicide since their youth and their songs contain a lot of rage but also melancholy as a mirror of their own lives. The album is not overly emotional though except for the first track which is still beautiful and even features a sample of the heartbeat of one of the band members. Samples and loops are a big part of the Soul Destruction sound and they are not afraid of using new technology in combination with traditional instruments. This is one of the most interesting unsigned bands I've ever heard and the production sounds very professional, almost at top notch level. Heavy, passionate, creative and experimental metal for the 21st century.
