Antirope: “Amnesia” CD and Digital 30th June 2023 Eclipse Records. German Progressive Rock Band.
There are so many great bands out here, sometimes I listen to them so much I forget to finish the review I started. So I had to make one as this band deserves a hell of fans! It is a very dark yet attractive cover artwork, hiding the good ingredients inside. A blend of music styles mixed into one profound feeling touching your heart and soul sending this band into the abyss of pleasure.
Emotions are the key to pleasing the listener, Antirope is dark and robust with those down-tuned heavy riffs. Dig the lyrics as they enter your subconscious and tell your mind you love and understand it. A band with a brother and sister who match their own creativity can only be for the best. Patrick Fleischer is well known in the music industry, he produced the album in his studio. Owner of Lungfull Studios producing albums for Nuclear Blast and Napalm Records in the early nineties.
He later changed the name of the studio for Studio 6.0 and went on digital, then recorded lots of German bands. Amnesia has been recorded live to keep this fresh deep life an album can be. There is no doubt this album will sell like bread. Modern sound with influences from the past, this album is just a masterpiece on its own.
