LAMENT - THROUGH THE REFLECTION + Beheaded Demo (*NEW-CD, Bombworks) Christian Death Metal
A progressive death metal reissue is the order of the day from Lament. Lament has been a stalwart in the Mexican underground extreme scene for
quite some time. Starting out as a death / grind outfit called Beheaded, the band changed its name to Lament as it embraced a more progressive /
melodic death metal sound. Lament followed up their debut album "Tears of a Leper" with "Through the Reflection", released on Finland's Little Rose
Productions in 1999 in limited quantities. The album has a melancholy, almost doom-like aura about it, while maintaining more of a mid-tempo
progressive thrash sound. The vocals have more of the shouty thrash feel with some death moments, and the bass playing is some of the most
remarkable that you will ever hear on an extreme metal release, almost stealing the show and becoming the lead instrument. The drumming is also
fantastic and very progressive, with many tempo and time signature changes, while also mixing in the band's Mexican heritage with some Flamenco
influence. Overall, this is a very solid album that was unfortunately not heard by many due to its initial short run, and Bombworks Records is ready to let
the world hear how great of an album this is. The release features all new artwork in digipak form and, as a bonus, will also include the original 4-song
Beheaded demo that was only ever previously available on cassette and provide a glimpse into Lament's brutal beginnings when they were playing allout
grind / death. Fans of Dark Tranquility, Manowar, Mortification, and Ethereal Scourge should look no further for a death metal fix with a twist.
