What fantastic idea to split the songs in numerous pieces! This way may prevent the danger of an illegal web upload, but unfortunately spoils the promo owner’s delight because of some disturbing breaks. Leaving this aside, powerful and mostly real fast Speed Metal remains. The voice is quite convenient and avoids highest pitches. For my taste it is less expressive and stout-hearted. PARADOX glance with a versed drummer in their line-up named Roland Jahoda. He does not slip up using just one measure in dull way. Luckily the band intersperses borne melodies and composes adeptly to build up a contrasting effect.
In all Electrify does not offer an above average amount of suspenseful songs and enthralling chords. Of course the music is played flawlessly and inheres a lot of pressure, but the refrains do not grab me by the scruff of my neck and I oftentimes wait for guitar attacks to raise my eyebrows or fists with a loud “yes!” to the sky…however this is the cause during the riffs and cheeping riffs of Infected, the following Disconnected or the semi ballad Cyberspace Romance. The concluding title track Electrify also is among the songs to mention positively. In most cases the refrains lack of catchiness so that I cannot speak of ear candies in the end.
After close listening of Electrify I am far away from being electrified. The vocal lines must be more haunting, the compositions more thrilling next time – and I would not complain about some surprises. Electrify just dabbles along or passes me by more or less emotionlessly in my opinion. What a pity!
