"Enter Suicidal Angels" is a collection of songs to appear on Dark Tranquility's forthcoming album "The Mindst". Even so, it's unfortunate that this EP is so painfully short, only 4 tracks and under sixteen minutes of music. Nonetheless, this is a very tantalizing sample of what Dark Tranquility has to offer. Dark Tranquility plays melodic death metal to near perfection. I in fact find them to sound somwhat similar to the now defunct At The Gates. The guitars are impecable, consisting of creative riffing and impressing soloing. The vocals could be described as a cross between a deathy growl and black metal vocals. The drumming is high tempo and provides energy to the music. I have a few complaints toward this recording. Track froud is a remix of previous Dark Tranquility material and comes across as a techno song, which doesn't seem like much of a bonus on an EP which costs as much as a full length album. Since most of what you'll hear on this EP will be on the forthcoming "The Mindst" album, you'd probably be better off waiting to pick up that album as opposed to picking up this high priced EP.
