Being
in this business allows me to experience all sorts of genres and indeed various
types of music, expanding my tastes far and wide as metal and none metal goes.
After reviewing Martyr Art’s album
Distorted Interpretations way back in 2013, I naturally jumped at the chance to
review the latest single from Joe Gagliardi III a.k.a Martyr Art entitled ‘Friday
13th Nintendo Theme’
The
thing that strikes me the most on this single are the keyboards that undulate
through a striking passage that doesn’t contain vocals and indeed doesn’t need
them, as its stunning portrayal of dramatic reassuring endeavour, offers
muscular riffs and intriguing urgency that simply cuts like a knife and more
than whet’s the appetite!
Starting
off with simple little choppy notes it builds to an all-out climax of infused
elements and pure emotion. The electronic bursts and that dark whispered sigh
speaks volumes, amid other incidental sounds that capture the ears in
unequalled detail.
It
radiates a certain warmth despite it being a torrential downpour of ravenous
riffs that compel and ignite with velocity and magnetic persuasion.
I
still cannot comprehend the art that has gone into making this single and all
done by one man Joe Gagliardi III.
His
efforts for this track alone should not go unrecognised as well as creating an
atmospheric ambiance all his own.
It
persistently advances its own endeavours and leads the way in intense energy
that spikes and accentuates a further deepening assault on the audial.
Listen to Friday 13th Nintendo Theme here!
The
slices of melody excite and thrill with insatiable pleasure. As the track
builds to its peak it taunts and teases in all the right places, without being
over-zealous and pushy, it corrupts in such a way that it just explodes into an
epic track that gives out further dimensions for listeners to follow.
In
all, this is one extremely haunting and sinister track that goes all the way
with no half measures into the bargain, as well as being highly addictive in
its exploits! What you get here is a
well-crafted piece of art that mesmerises and impacts as soon as the play
button is released.
Martyr Art has gone above
and beyond the realms of possibility turning this music into a masterpiece and
comes highly recommended, raising the bar several notches higher than expected!
I
personally think Joe should be extremely proud of this creation as it is
certainly unparalleled by rivals of this genre.
Guaranteed
to give your ears an unrelenting work out!
