Reviews

GLORIA MORTI - LIFESTREAM CORROSION - WORLDCHAOS
Gloria Morti was founded as a thrash metal band and it shows amidst the heavy riffs, speedy passages and gruff vocals. The band's biography talks of Dissection, Behemoth and Impaled Nazarene. Is the band a pure metal sensation? They could have been were it not for the keyboards. Sadly, the band mixes its quite good music with keyboards and joins the ranks of those who are either too young to not know that metal and pop instruments don't go together or is simply too choked in the Finnish school band scene to care. Either way, Gloria Morti is a band with lots of potential which, nevertheless, squanders the possibility by getting mired in the commercialism of the day. The question is why? Would one choose to be a bus or truck driver when there is a Porsche waiting in the drive way? Would you go for GM if there was a Infiniti nearby? Once again, Gloria Morti's Lifestream Corrosion could have been a fantastic album by virtue of the convincing high and low vocals, blasting drums and powerful rhythms, but alas the band finds solace in metallic suicide. - Ali "The Metallian"
