Beyond Mortal Dreams are an Australian Death Metal band treading their own path on their own terms with this 18 minute, 4 track EP.
Three original songs and a Beherit cover are what we get, and this EP is over far too quickly as Beyond Mortal Dreams deliver the goods.
And those lead guitars! I love a good solo and there’s plenty of fretwork on these songs to keep me happy. The guitars generally are both aggressive and atmospheric, in the way that Nile manage so effortlessly; yet also take aspects of bands like Immolation. These are the bands that are not just concerned with aural bludgeoning, but who are also interested in immersing the listener in the mood of the song as well.
The drums form the bedrock on which everything else is built and it’s clear that the drummer is not human but rather some form of multi-armed cyber-mutation that’s been programmed to pound skins for all it’s worth. Impressive stuff.
This EP is a fantastic listen and I can’t wait to hear more from them in the future.

I thought it is something new… How wrong I was! But this is not so important in fact. What is important though, is the music itself. And it is brilliant! The solos you mentioned are fantastic. I love the way two subsequent solos superimpose on each other. Everything sound good. It is not overproduced and dehumanized. Hope they record a full release anytime soon.
Yup, I’ve been commenting too much and too frequently on your blog. Punish me with more stuff like Beyond Mortal Dreams. I will stand it. Proud 😉
Ah, forget to add – Australian metal, no matter what sub-genre it represents, rules!
Australian Metal does seem to be very high quality – and commenting is good! 🙂
