SCARRED “Gaia – Medea”

SCARRED
”Gaia – Medea”
(Klonosphere)
I have very few scars and none that has SCARRED me for life. I have no idea what it is like to carry that burden with you for the rest of your life. The band SCARRED might not leave me bleeding but I do hope that they’ll scratch the surface and not bounce off like a water drop. Luxembourg is by far a big place. Yet we’ve seen some cool metal acts come from that tiny country. SCARRED is death metal. That is a fact stated with all possible clarity. It is a technical sort of death metal that we are presented with. I’m not at all familiar with Gojira but their name pops up more than once in the press release. Listening to this I’m not sure about the technical bit of their death metal sound. We seem to have different opinions on what’s technical. Sure, there is the aura of Meshuggah hanging over them but compared to that band this isn’t even the light version. That aside this is a good death metal album. Anders Ekdahl
