Soulscar

Lost In Life / Demo 1998

(c)1998 Andrew Staehling

Review by Neil St.Laurent

Thanks to the band for the CD

Soulscar is back again this issue with another 3 song installment of Andrew's brand of death metal.

Although the drums are programmed, the simplified beats do not detract from the music, and indeed Andrew has done quite a good job this time on the programming. As expected however, this music is about the driving guitar sound, which presents a soundscape of pleasant death metal. The guitar work has flare to it; though vibrant and rich unto its own, there is a lot of effort in strength this time and music doesn't just rely on the guitar.

Making me quite happy for this demo are the reduced and improved vocal contributions but for the most part this demo is instrumental in nature.

For an independant production and a demo, this recording again shows Andrew to be a very talented musician who if can ever form a complete band and get an opportunity for better production will likely produce an incredible death metal album.

Soulscar is Andrew Staehling
