Depth Beyond Ones - Soledad in the Gale

And here's some more of that progressive stuff from Finland. Depth Beyond One's - Soledad in The Gale might be the most thrashest piece I've ever put in my walkman. This technically skillful, occasionally progressive heavy-rock-funk-goofy-pop-kebabminor-chaos trio is like that melodic version of Primus's and Mike Patton's crack baby.

The trio proceeds uniformly by the power of bass and guitar while the drums whip on the background. Every now and then they come up with a crooked time for a while but then they switch back to at least a little direct sentiment. Time to time it reminds me of a thrash legend Atheist who had the same mentality towards musical boundries.

DBO is really hard to describe. Fancy guitar solos, bass solos, (Everyone loves these! *uhm*), nice vocal melodies and crooked times can be found. If you find anti-mainstream music interesting you should definately go and take a bite at the bands website.

One point for being original, a point and a half for skills, one for the loony attitude and a half and a plus for the song Dearth of life. This works great, at least for me. Others should still be prepared for a little surprise.
