I recently had the chance to listen to the debut EP from Italian death metal band Beyond the Dark. If this is what they can put together for a debut, then I certainly look forward to more material from them. It’s not often that a freshman release, and an independent one at that, rise to such a level of excellence. Proficient and focused, Beyond the Dark brought their A game for this EP.

 

Aside from delivering blast beats and blistering guitar riffs, Beyond the Dark also displays impressive range and mellows things down just a bit. Just a bit, though. It still retains the driving sound that makes it fit with the rest of the album. The sum total is 6 tracks that deliver a great sound. For fans of metal, give it a listen and I think you’ll enjoy it. For Beyond the Dark…make more!
