WOW!!!! This one is intriguing and no wonder...
Massimiliano Pagliuso and Giuseppe Orlando from Novembre are major
contributions (keyboards & backing vocals)!! Recorded, mixed and mastered
at Outer Sound Studios, Klimt 1918 have created a near-perfect Post-Modern/Alternative
Metal version of The Cure. Do not let the intro throw your mind for a loop
(just laugh, I did)... I was a bit skeptical when I first heard it, which
is in fact the only flaw I heard in its entirety, but the rest more than
makes up for it. The guitar harmonies are angelic with an almost 80's-pop
feel, but the heavy parts are very modern and progressive. The percussive
section is equally as impressive... not just typical fall-in-sync kick n'
snare with single chord bass-taps - actually sounds a bit jazzy in essence,
with some double kicks here and there. Klimt 1918s' debut album, "Undressed
Momento", is so dreamlike & mesmerizing that fans of bands like Anathema,
Novembre, Opeth, Duran Duran and The Cure will fall in love with this gem!
I can't get this thing out of my CD-player!!!! Favorite track: 7 - Naif
Watercolour.
