Quo Vadis - Defiant Imagination

Quo Vadis - Defiant Imagination (2004)
Technical Melodic Death Metal
Track listing:
Silence Calls the Storm
In Contempt
Break the Cycle
Tunnel Effect (Element of the Ensemble IV)
To the Bitter End
In Articulo Mortis
Fate's Descent
Dead Man's Diary
Ego Intuo Et Servo Te

Originating from Canada, these skilled musicians create a fantastic twist on traditional Technical Death Metal but adding elements of melody into their playing. The musical accomplishments of this band cannot be questioned, as they easily envelope progressive time changes and impressive feats on their various instruments to compose strikingly catchy and enjoyable metal. The drum work is rather notable as well, the man's feet are rather impressive as well as his perfectly executed double bass kicks. Elements of elegance are placed strategically throughout the album in the forms of slight breaks from the relentlessness of the heavy compositions. Enjoy this masterfully written and executed album. You will not be disappointed.
