EP Review: "Cara Data Vermibus" by Come Back From The Dead

Caro Data Vermibus
Mmm...that Reese's Peanut Butter Cup was so good.

Shoot, your friend here is old enough to remember when there was no such thing as Reese's Peanut Butter Cups...or perhaps the onslaught of commercials just makes me think that.

But, there's no question that those you got chocolate in my peanut butter and you got peanut butter in my chocolate commercials are imprinted on my mind.

I can also remember a world where we ate our Easter bunnies while dipping them in peanut butter, because they hadn't extended the Reese's plan into bunnies yet.

Their idea was that there are two great tastes and why should you choose what you had? (It was the 80's after all and it was more more more.) This lesson that I'm trying to teach my daughter...well, it's a source of great hypocrisy for me....

Come Back From The Dead
How do you like your metal?

It comes in a variety of flavors big enough to make Baskin Robbins blush.

One of the newer flavors, we'll call it the Mint Moose Tracks of heavy metal is the manic metal.

There is a great amount of power in this. Barishi is a band that really exemplifies this kind of metal done well.

Another somewhat newer flavor is the grooved out, call it musically inclined metal. This is great for showing to those who love saying that metal isn't music. (SPLITTERS!)

What if a band had a couple of different setting in order to achieve a wider array of sounds and different types of power?

Well, Come Back From The Dead has shown us just that and it's glorious.

Passages of pure rage are followed by melodic solos and then riffs that'll get the whole room jumping in unison. Metal can be a monolithic force of nature, but wouldn't it be better if it was polylithic rather than monolithic?

I mean, more stones is more metaler.

Right?
