| Holographic Universe, in my opinion was a turning point for the band. It's the one album that really sticks out from the rest, although all of their albums are excellent, Holographic Universe has a unique sound. Thier tends to be more of the clean vocals on the album, but overall, it balances out perfectly with the sound of the album. A perfect example of a well-balanced song with mostly clean vocals but yet, still producing a potent, heavy sound would be Track 2- Time Wave Zero. It is probably the most stand out song on the entire album, it really shows how great Christian is at singing,hitting high notes, and also mixing in all of his growls with everything. The guitar work is also phenomonal on this record, from fast, heavy riffs, to melodic, yet very complicated sounding solos. Holographic Universe is an outstanding example of Swedish Melodic Metal, with a very futuristic sound. For those who are into foreign melodic metal bands, this is the number one band to check out. Buy the recor, you won't regret it. |
