Odal - On Old Paths
There Is A Feeling - A Sense Almost - Of An Impending Chaotic Dread The Static Created By The Analog Recording Provides A Windy Torrential Downpour As The Harsh Vocals Sharply Contrast Withdrawn Whimsical Guitars And Hectic Pounding Drums. It's As Though You Are Being Urged Pushed And Pressured On A Confusing Path That Never Seems To End. Then When It Seems As Though Through The Chaos There Is Placidity You Are Snapped Back To A Painful Reality. This Latter Point Is Made Ever-The-More Solidified By Odal's Use Of External Dialogue As An Intro And Conclusion In The Song "Traitor." Taken From What Can Be Assumed Is A Sadistic Torture Scene From A Movie - Possibly From The Same Sources That Kreuzweg Ost Has Used - This External Dialogue Is No More Than Painful Screaming From Bitter Beatings Supported By A Typically Depressing Pianist. A Reminder Perhaps That We Are All Traitorous Wenches Undeserving Of Odal's Music. But Are We Really Undeserving? From A Technical Perspective While The Artists Are Competent With Their Instruments - Specifically With Regards To Utilizing Rhythm In Combination With One Another - There Isn't Anything Truly Exceptional About Them. An Understanding For Tone And For Speed Provides A Basis For Stimulating Music But Repetitiveness In The Form Of The Same Melodies In The Same Tempo - Regardless Of Whether It's From Heavy Or Rhythmic Guitars Or From The Self-Proclaimed 'drums Of War' - Leads To An All-Too-Familiar Filler That Plagues This Short Album. Decent Grating Vocals Do Little To Stem This Tide And Eradicate This Underlying Mediocrity.

There is a feeling - a sense, almost - of an impending chaotic dread; the static created by the analog recording provides a windy torrential downpour, as the harsh vocals sharply contrast withdrawn whimsical guitars and hectic, pounding drums. It's as though you are being urged, pushed and pressured on a confusing path that never seems to end. Then when it seems as though through the chaos, there is placidity, you are snapped back to a painful reality.
This latter point is made ever-the-more solidified by Odal's use of external dialogue as an intro and conclusion in the song "Traitor." Taken from what can be assumed is a sadistic torture scene from a movie - possibly from the same sources that Kreuzweg Ost has used - this external dialogue is no more than painful screaming from bitter beatings supported by a typically depressing pianist. A reminder, perhaps, that we are all traitorous wenches, undeserving of Odal's music.
But are we really undeserving? From a technical perspective, while the artists are competent with their instruments - specifically with regards to utilizing rhythm in combination with one another - there isn't anything truly exceptional about them. An understanding for tone and for speed provides a basis for stimulating music, but repetitiveness in the form of the same melodies in the same tempo - regardless of whether it's from heavy or rhythmic guitars or from the self-proclaimed 'drums of war' - leads to an all-too-familiar filler that plagues this short album. Decent, grating vocals do little to stem this tide and eradicate this underlying mediocrity. Read more on Last.fm.
