A drum computer is something really cool when listening to an Industrial album, but in the brutal Death Metal this is none of its business. There the drums have to bang and to destroy instead of blasting concave and unemotional. The fundamental idea may be ok when pulling out all the stops as a one-man-show called KOREOPSIS. The man behind KOREOPSIS, the one who pull the strings, is named Johannes Real. And he allows just one guest musician taking part on Resin. It’s significant that the producer Dave Snow is the man who chips in some loose keyboard parts. Although some more ideas created by different brains would suit the Suisse solo project well. Six years after releasing the first MCD called Guttural Woods, Resin isn’t able to top off good ideas and so it can’t persuade the whole length. The ideas happen to a very large degree in technical, brutal Death Metal. As a result a sackful of breaks is played that replace the blast attacks with more or less interesting interim skirmish. Less interesting has to be defined more specific: also here the basic concept to assimilate close atmospheric heaviness and sporadic Jazz colors placates, but this doesn’t move Resin forward in the general view. In fact these elements fit well to the run of the mill sound. The more pleasant the typical genre riffs are which regrettably passed the world’s auditory canals often enough already. The standardized deep vocals take the same line. That what remains under the bottom line is an average KOREOPSIS release that scores with its production at least. Further six years of latency don’t initiate pains.
