Moloken - 2008 - We All Face The Dark Alone

I have to say this band instantly caught my attention. Is one of those bands who easily flows into yourself as a whole. Art, music, name, monicker, musicians... everything fits perfectly into this darkness created by this new swedish band in the same way that an evil absence of light matches with fear.

"We All Face The Dark Alone" could sneak into black metal stuff if you only see the cover art. Error. That would be the only link with that style... apart from the voice, which also can be included on a far side on that genre. Musically talking I won't label them as it wouldn't be fair. If a term has to be used for them is experimental, understanding that into extreme metal scene. You'll soon understand why when you start to listen to this EP.
It consists of a 15 minutes track split into three titles, apparently not linked if you read them: "Lost Saviour", "Dual Core Friction" and "Paranoia". Of course, they all form part of the same whole.
I'd say these songs go from dark and slow tempoes to sudden epic riffs which automatically catches you into a pursuit horror film scene happening on their native home, among trees and over the snow... at dusk. The beast is near and you're tired... get the picture?
This work is not one of those you'll put to hear something while you arrive to somewhere... though could be useful to have it in the background. This EP is better to sit down, relax and listen to it a couple times on your room... the bummer is this kinda digipack doesn't come with a booklet with pictures and lyrics to support the story the band wants to transmit. But sometimes is better to leave up to your imagination the picture the music wants to give.
I particularly enjoy the amazing passage starting on minute 8 (almost sharp) which adds some progressive elements after the initial wild beginning... Wow!!!
This is very recommendable to all of those freaks into sludge, art-core, extreme stuff.

MOLOKEN folks: think about start to work on new material!!!

NoizeLand freaks: as always, support the band buying their records (directly or to an approved source) and their merch.
