New Eden - Stagnant Progression (9/10)
Wow, what one can say about this Majectic album. I am still feeling the effect of the songs and hear the riffs and rhythm of the band in my ear. NEW EDEN album the Stagnant Progression is an excellent piece of metal which is a must for each metal fan. New Eden have a bright future in the metal scheme and their label RockItUp records showed that they know how to choose great metal bands. .This band plays US metal with power and progressive metal elements. All songs are excellent compositions. The album also contains 3 bonus tracks from the Band 1999 demom, furthermore it comes with a detailed booklet of lyrics and images.  This is an album which made a big impression to me and those who listened to it. Dynamic from the start, the guitars are wild and free, and each songs was produced and played with attention to detail . The band members prove that they know what they are doing and show what’s they are made for in each song. We liked the vocalist a lot, his  voice matches perfectly with the bands music especially his screams but also during the  chorus where the  band manages to produce a symphonic vocal effect. The guitarists prove in every song what they are made of with some excellent solos and riffs sometimes melodic, sometimes progressive sometimes very powerful. The same applies for the other instruments. What is more interesting is the lyrics of the band which talk about spirits, souls, gods and secret societies. That was another point which made the album even more interesting. All of the above together with the A+  excellent production have led us to the conclusion to rate the album with a very high rating  Highlights, althouth every song is close to perfection we liked a lot the 5th song “Emptiness of Black Tomorrow” I would not say more, visit the store of Rockitup records and buy the cd, not only you support a great band and a great label but also you will add to your metal collection a valuable album which I am sure you will listen to very often
