Remains “Ruin Repeat” Demo
Jacksonville Drone/Doom
metal trio, Remains is a recent discovery for me. I stumbled upon their 2011
demo which features 4 songs of dark post-apocalyptic drone. The dark keyboard
and pain anguished screams of Clay, together with the mix of Jack’s tight
rhythmic drumming and Mike’s drone soaked guitars make this one project to
check out. The droned rhythms are very trance and psychedelic in nature, and
with the tortured screams and keyboards, it makes for a pretty unique sound. I like how the band manages to keep the pace
but somehow throw you off with weird guitar bends and tasteful drum fills. For me, my favorite moments were the clean,
melodic guitar line on “Apetra,” along with the keyboard solo and drum pickup
in “Eschaton.” What a great way to end
off this little 4 song album! I would
definitely recommend this for fans of Earth, Sunn O)))
and Barn Owl. From the ashes and remains, will a new beginning rise?...
