Elizabeth/Insomnia/Lost Pilgrim Records/2013 7 Inch Review

  Elizabeth  are  a  band  from  Switzerland  that  has been  featured  before  in  this zine  that  plays  a  mixture  of  crust and  hardcore and  this  is  a  review  of  their  2013  7  inch  "Insomnia"  which  was  released  by  Lost  Pilgrim Records.

  "Ravens" which  is  the  first song  on  the ep  starts  up  with  distorted  sounds  before  the  heavy guitar  and  bass  riffs  come  in  along  with  some  drums  and  high  pitched  screams  and  after  awhile  the  music  gets faster  along  with  some  blast  beats  along  with  some  hardcore style  shouts  and  growls.

  "Danger"  begins  with  heavy  and  distorted  guitar  riffs  and  drums  along  with  some  screams  and  then  speeding  up  with  some  blast  beats  and  towards  the  end  there  is  a  brief  use  of  growls  and  melodic  leads  and  you  can  hear  the  bass.

  "Created Enemies"  opens  up  with  heavy  guitar  and  bass  riffs  along  with  some  drums  before  going  into  a  more  fast  and  crusty  direction  along  with  some  screams  and  blast  beats  which  also  leads  up  to  some  back  up  shouts.

  'Cemetary  Fading"  which  is  also  the  last  song  on  the  ep  starts  off  with  powerful  bass  and  guitar  riffs  along  with  some  drums  and  screams  which  also  lead  up  to  some  blast  beats  and  melodic  guitar  riffing  as  will  as  some  guitar  leads.

  Song  lyrics  cover  dark  themes,  while  the  production  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  dark  sound  where  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  present  on  this  recording.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  sounding  recording  from  Elizabeth  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  crust  mixed  with  hardcore, you  should  enjoy  this  7  inch.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS INCLUDE  "Ravens"  and  "Cemetary  Fading".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
