Edenic Past -- the sound of a ton of bricks of brutality
Edenic Past
Red Amarcord
August 6 2021 (vinyl)
Sentient Ruin Laboratories
The Sentient Ruin Laboratories lords of the caverealm have declared that Edenic Past is Colin Marston (guitars) and Nicholas McMaster (bass) from U.S. legion of heaviness-weirdness Krallice. Colin and Nicholas in turn recruited fellow Neanderthal vocalist Paulo Henri Paguntalan from Encenathrakh (yes, it’s a real thing; see Metal Archives) for a cursed meeting of the warped minds. Things are about to go sideways with Edenic Past, and when they do, we ask that you take refuge in the nearest forest where you can find some protection and perhaps some type of food to keep you alive for the next six months or so, until the voices in your head yelling "My precious, my precious, my precious!" finally subside and you can begin to make your way back towards the Kingdom of Tacoma or the Golden Realm of LaPush. Edenic Past brings a swamp of gargled-burped gruff growling with a specialty in the vocal techniques reserved for the most disgusting brutality. The guitars seem like a twisted, contorted form of jazz, like you would imagine a death metal guitarist sitting at home with the guitar in hand, watching a video of a live performance of a jazz group going bonkers and then the guitarist does a version of that insanity on the guitar, and voilĂ , Edenic Past! The drum
programming is doing exactly what you'd expect, putting on a clinic on technical-progressive extreme computer fake drumming. Now, take all of that, add a layer of experimentalism and slam, and that is a roller coaster in some brutality-tech-death-slamming hoedown that you can mosh to or watch alien documentaries to or just grab your algebra homework and take control of those numbers to the tunes of this piece of Americana. Now then, will they ever find their perfect drummer to complete this Olympic dream team of brutality?
