CoC : Kormoss - Screams From Night-Mary : Review

Kormoss - _Screams From Night-Mary_
by: Pedro Azevedo (4 out of 5)

Kormoss make very good, yet unobtrusive, use of keyboards, which remind me of Samael's remarkable _Passage_ (especially during the piano-like parts that sound great with the riffs). However, there's a human drummer here (as opposed to _Passage_), and the riffs lean more towards death metal, with the vocals falling somewhere between death and raspy thrash. The keyboards are also occasionally used for a more atmospheric background work and generally provide more variety in the songs, which also usually feature enough tempo changes. The sound quality is quite high, and the band behaves very well, always tight, while the music also remains interesting throughout the demo. Another promising band from Portugal, this time from the Northern city of Guimaraes.
