Shivan - Whatever Lot's Above

The debut of this gothic, based on speed, metal band is an album with 9 tracks where the emphasise is on the guitarriffs, not strange when he write the music. The drums are creating a nice double bass wall of sound. The keyboards are there to give that extra touch but not overwhelming. The songs are changing their structure and tempo frequently. The vocals are brutal and aggressive but can suddenly change to a clean part. With 50 minutes a long run but you can set your mind on hold.

1. Grieved (intro)
2. Slave to greed
3. Only wicked never trail
4. Dregs upon us
5. Forlorn
6. Daring
7. One more for the blind
8. Silent crying
9. Heed not sighs
