Quest Of Aidance/Misanthropic Propaganda/Pulverised Records/2013 CD Review


  Quest  Of  Aidance  are  a  band  from  Sweden  that  has  been  featured  before  in this  zine with  a  musical  style  that  I  would  describe  as  being  symphonic  death/grind and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2013  album  "Misanthropic  Propaganda  which  was  released  by  Pulverised  Records.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  a  great  amount  of  brutal  sounding  blast  beats  being  thrown  into  the  music,  while  the  synths  bring  a  very  dark, atmospheric  and  symphonic  sound  to  the  recording  and  at  times  they  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  brutal  death metal  with  grindcore  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  along with  a  great  amount  of  melody  being  thrown  into  the  riffing,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  melodic  sounding  death  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads  that  utilize  some  technical  elements  at  times,  as  for  the  acoustic  and  classical  guitars  when  they  are  utilized  they  use  finger  picking  to  add  some  darkness  to  the  recording.

  Vocals  range  from  deep  death  metal  growls  to  high  pitched  grindcore  screams  as  well  as  some  spoken  word  samples,  while  the  lyrics  cover  Science  Fiction themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  to  it  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on  this  recording.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  recording  from  Quest  Of  Aidance  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  band,  you  should  enjoy  this  album.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Seething  Voids"  "Anyx"  "Red  Dust"  and  "Sirian  Breed".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
