KRELLKrell DemoRelease: 2006Label: Self ReleasedAvantgenre: Goth Rock And ElectRollDuration: 37:56Origin: SpainOfficial site: http://www.myspace.com/krellianweb.............................................................................................................................................Starting with a clichéd yet still disturbing the way though. Hell, this could have beensample this quickly evolves into the very on one of those Euro Vampire Rock compilations,except when the singer smilesdarkwave/goth influenced opening salvoof "Soul Eater" that quickly morphs into and reveals the grade a grills instead ofthe band's unique goth rock. It has a the pre-requisite fangs. "Out of Your Play"groovy and strangely organic sound despitethe abundance of samples, synths the Cure-ish guitar and synth work. Gohas a more heartfelt sound, mostly due toand the electro drumkit. Maybe it’s the ahead; cry while you dance in your blacksomewhat loose guitar (with a strange latex. "Say Hello Say Goodbye" is themuffled tone, no less), or the early new darkest sounding of the lot, not unlikewave goth vocals. There are even some prime Christian Death doing electro-disco.classic sounding lead squeals towards the Move, corpses, move! Some of the guitarend of the song. This leads us to the gothictrance marriage on the rocks of "Too discordant, but never loose sight of themanipulations are beautifully ugly andReal". These songs have warmth, and a song. This damn CD might as well havereal sleazy feel to them yet still maintainingthe noir tones important to this type of 101'. "Tale of a Common Day" has somebeen titled 'Gothic Electo Rock Hookssound.authentic sounding bluesy opening licks,but quickly moves onto what Danzig'sBlackacidevil should have sounded like,had he some compositional skills and artisticvitality left.The hooks are there, but the cult-ness ofinstrumentation and the elements of realrock n roll so prevalent in the music willkeep this off the charts. I have to get areference out there before I (god forbid)admit it’s original so here it is, Lazy MusicReviewer ref # 535: a darkwave RollingStones covering 80's underground newwave. "III" almost got me dancing, seriously(while a tortured metal part of me wantedto turn this off and check out the latestgrind download). But damn if the sloppysounding traditional leads and the 80'ssynths aren't enjoyable. "Inoculation ofSound" has the heaviest guitartone of the lot but once again in a ThrillKill Cult covering Depeche Mode for theDoberman soundtrack context. Lovely andthoroughly gothic synths and samples allThis begs the question why more of thedarkwave/electro/EBM crowd cannot (orwill not) allow more human elements intotheir sound. There is really is a lot of explorationleft in the club oriented gothicscene, and as Krell amply demonstrates,some emotional rock 'n' roll will only enhancethe beat. So please lay of the Horacioand Blutenegel CD's and give this ashot. Definitely a grower and keeper.Suleiman
