Reviews ELLIPSIS - IMPERIAL TZADIK - THUNDERING
Innovative extreme music has a new short form: Ellipsis. This is a French unknown and underground entity, but the band injects such ferocious appetite for diverse extremeness as well as distinct melodies that convince from the opening track Perfect Rage to the end, namely Kingdom Of Hate And Green, that this album will bow before no one. Starting from a base of SYL and Nevermore with the requisite keyboard harmonies and vocals, the band takes the next step and goes toward a maelstrom of different texts and subtexts that evoke motion, metal, rock, industrial and ambience, but always at nigh perfect niveaus. The progressive riffs and songs will depress, elate and certainly probe the senses. From morbid curiosity to homoerotic (Liquid Machine X) lyrics this band is in constant motion fronted by a man who hits some remarkable notes. The strapping young lad in Canada would be proud. - Anna Tergel
