Kashee Opeiah – Panic in Solitude
Whirlwind Records – 2007
By Axemaiden
This album is everything deathcore, metalcore and
Kashee Opeiah fans would expect it to be; brutal, thrashing, tortured, anguished and sounding as if it has been created and produced in the depths of Hell itself. The intense bursts of drums and guitars and the eerie grating effects sound almost as if they have been produced by some nefarious machine and Daniel Ziesche’s roaring and splintered vocal talents are positively evil with their relentless assault on the senses. According to the band,
Panic in Solitude is intended to be a concept album of hardcore tracks broken up with ‘oases of silence’, before the next brutal offering is made and indeed the songs might be a little too screamingly similar if they weren’t interjected with more melodic tracks such as
‘After This Act of Deliverance’, which, despite the heavy vocals, is a slow, pulsing, almost tragically reflective tune which shows a very different side to the band. All in all, this is a damn decent album, despite any issues with repetitive song styles, which definitely grows on you the more you listen to it.
