01. Drowned In You
02. Crush
03. Life Sarcasm
04. Wither

So, I got this demo, and I was in the phone with a friend that was telling me about his ex-girlfriend, and that she was pregnant, so, I'm in the middle of this gossip talk, meanwhile, I'm also opening the envelope just to reveal that the cover of this Cd. Is an ecographie of a baby, is it the baby of one of the members of the band? I don't know, but now that I think about it.. Incendium, ecographie? wow, this baby must be on fire! I know I was drunk at the time, as a matter of fact, I'm drunk most of the time.

Anyway, should I review the album or finish the story of my friend's girlfriend? Ok, I'll review this 4 song Demo from the land of the thousand lakes, just to let you know, these guys are playing Gothic metal, the melancholic, mellow one, with some up tempo songs and clear vocals, they use to play Death Metal, but now they decided to move on to quieter meadows?

Well, nuff said. 4 songs, 3 are pretty boring and uninteresting, with some moments like the growls in "Crush", but the rest? nah. Then arrives the final song, "Wither" and that's what I was expecting here! Cool song, very nice arrangements, the violin fits well, and the chorus is very catchy, more of this please!

So, compose more songs like "Wither" and you'll be famous and maybe rich (don't forget meee), compose more songs like the other 3, you're doomed to remain in the shadows of oblivion for the rest of your life, there, I gave the formula to success to these guys! Any more bands who want to be successful, please call 1-800UNDERCRAFT , operators are waiting.
