Firelord - The Burning EP ...

This is my first Firelord album, but surely not my last. Firelord started in Turin in 2007 from the ashes of a Doom Metal project named Saint Judas founded by Mario E. Bussini a few years prior. In 2007, Beppe Tozza, Daniele Biffaro and Giulio Buscaglione joined the project. The 6 track EP is a very interesting piece of work.

“Time for Vengence” is the opening track with no fillers and is straight to the point. Typical Stoner Doom Guitar sounds, with very good vocals to support it. The drumming is pretty crisp and fast. It is a catchy track to start off; and very few bands get it right and to be very honest these guys knows which track should come first and which one later. The production of this album is what I’d like to begin with. In a word, HEAVY! Really low, pulsing, riffs bellow out of the speakers thicker than the smoke coming out of your mouth! The same banging riffs are thickly distorted much like the world around you while you listen to it. The music is layered and dense allowing for the listener to pick it apart and examine each aspect of the sound, but at the same time the flow is as smooth as ever.
“Crazy little witch” and “Riding with the death” are really good tracks. Speaking of guitars, the riffs on this album are catchy, rocking, and heavy. Mostly slower catchy riffs that WILL get stuck in your head, but the occasional solo or haunting guitar bending like at the intro.

The bass is not as astounding, but that is for the best. It is audible throughout the work which I like, but there are no moments it does anything you wouldn’t expect. The drums fall into the same category as the bass. It is pretty decent and carries along very well with rest of the other instruments. Each track is very different from the other, which is really good and not boring
I am definitely getting more and more into Firelord now and I hope they will come up with a killer Full length release shortly. It is a pretty good EP and gets you going. Lay your hands on them!!!
