Chronicle By Metalkiller
is again South America which is featured on the blog. Because after my vodka and my unhealthy love for Polish prog scene), I enter my period Tequila ... After presenting you the Argentines SACRAL of a few weeks ago .. Brazil's turn to be featured, with a little prodigy born in São Paulo ... excellent and amazing young band of prog-metal, DEVENTTER ... Brazil? Argentina? whiz kids?? no! no! I'm not talking about football, but music, specifically progressive metal ....
DEVENTTER began in 2001 under the leadership of Hugo Bertolaccini (keyboards) and Andre Gabriotti (bass), both vowing a passion for progressive rock, with the backing of guitarist ANDREW MARENGO, they compose an instrumental track 23-minute "The Beauty ... And The Dark Side Of Our Lives" first demo of the group. An EP well received by the press. This will encourage our three comrades to continue the adventure. Then everything started ...
DEVENTTER Since then grew and four musicians were added to the line-up, Caio Teixeira (Drums), Danilo Pilla (guitar), Felipe Schäffer (Voice) and recently Leonardo Milani (Bass).
The group has worked hard these sparing no efforts to promote his music in his country and the world, linking together in concert .. And is forging a fine reputation. All this work will be rewarded by the release of their debut album The 7th DIMENSION in 2007, and although it is not without flaws, due precisely to the fact that this is a first album. The 7th dimension is very successful, and get a very impressive sales and positive reviews in the Brazilian press and internationally.
Turning tirelessly in their country with the sizes that are Tempestt Brazilian prog, THESSARA MINDFLOW OR ...
the famous drummer Mike Portnoy of DREAM THEATER them as one of the best prog-metal band from Brazil, also did not hesitate to invite them to play in the first part of the tour DREAN THEATER Brazil.
If progressive rock is the basic source of inspiration and main DEVENTTER .. (See for yourself the influences seventies claimed by the group), these influences are far from eloquent! because if these young musicians refer to music pioneers such as DEEP PURPLE, BLACK SABBATH, PINK FLOYD and RUSH .. it's more in mind than in reality because their music is resolutely contemporary, and building on these solid foundations, they have concocted a mix of 70's prog, metal, modern rock and alternative to trend grunge .. and I can assure you that by the time the music of the Brazilian (Incidentally, all excellent musicians) is far from being a Brazilian samba .. know if they move us with their compositions with smooth melodies and graceful as a slice of honey .. they also know to be aggressive and cleaner ... the ardor of their youth coupled with their Latin origins give this group a special originality .. despite their relative young age, these Brazilians sweat the prog in the same way as the band pornoy (listen to track 2 "6000", we believe it .. at DT). Certainty .. these young people know showcase their music and compose songs all the more alluring than the others: each long or short, contains a lot of bright ideas, arrangements and sparkling musical prowess, and they rely heavily on 70's heritage, they do so with much originality and freshness .. frankly apart from a sound I would describe as average on some songs, I think this wonderful album should propel quickly DEVENTTER the pantheon of the best groups of its kind and soon to replace the late ANGRA (A. Matos period) in the heart of all Fans of progressive metal.
A special mention for the singer FELIPE Schäffer which has a beautiful timbre and charisma amazing .. This guy is a plus for the group undeniable .. like ANGRA with André Matos ...
Here! I would have warned .. So do not miss this discovery came from South America .. For over from Brazilian Progressive Metal has finally arrived and she called : DEVENTTER
ANGRA GOODBYE .. VIVE DEVENTTER!
