EMACIATION new chaotic structure release called Planet In Bliss gives the hardcore black metallers a new face to hear in the extreme world of the underground. Coming out of Missouri this group dishes out some dark ranged tunes with melodic aspects of black metal making the European counterparts take notice. Musically EMACIATION breathes some fresh air with It Called To Me with female soprano vocals in the background easing with the rest of the band demonstrating COF flair. Unspoken and Ancient Fortress tracks are the albums stronger points of music reference due to song approach, guitar riffs and vocal style. Singer Lord Kirby Ray displaying an array of vocal potential compliments the rest of the band that flourishes well with the rest of the album. Despite current changes with the lineup this does take away the energy that this band shows through songwriting as some bands this would be the greater downfall. Downside to this album is the lack of clarity through its sound production. Other than that EMACIATION charters new potential with Planet In Bliss.
