NORTHENKORGH "GELO, RIFLESSO LUNARE" - 2004
 

I was so happy to do not review the same black metal band, so I started to listen to this cd, that, listening to the intro, seemed quite interesting, a minimal electronic a bit ambient-oriented prepare the listener to one of the most boring cd on the world.
Yes, ‘cos this demo says nothing, songs built up by patterns or loops that repeat themselves an incredible number of times without feeling, they’re far away from the electronic experimentation of most famous artists that, experimenting with obsessive patterns or loops 10 seconds long, can create something good, that have a sense.
Only at track number 5 the things seem to go better, a distort guitar start a nice loop, a snare in 4/4 (and only a snare, no other percussions), but you can dream for a long time, the loop that is 4 seconds long, is repeated untile 1 minuts and 23 seconds (so, you listen it for 20,75 times!) then you star listening a grat (!!!) pattern so composed: a drum beat, a drum beat + ride, you listen this untile 2 minutes and 20 seconds. The song continue with electronic digressions quite nice but nothing fresh...
