FALAISE - As Time Goes By

Details

falaise.jpgFalaise, a duo from Italy, have released their first full CD As Time Goes By. Rooted in the post-black and blackgaze scenes, the resulting album is nonetheless by times more aggressive than one would expect from a blackgaze band.

The atmospheric pieces sound a bit too keyboard-ish and plastic, and seem to lack depth – so they stand in stark contrast with the black metal parts.

I get post-black and blackgaze, and many bands in the genre have captured my heart and soul with the layers of emotions they offer. But I can't say the same about Falaise – somehow, their effort feels disjointed.

To conclude: As Time Goes By by Falaise is a deeply varied post-black album, and that is also the weakness of this album: there seems to be a lack of focus, and the band just seems to try every trick they know and throw them all together.
