Ollipeist
Metal/Ambient/Progressive
Unsigned
Ollipeist has made a truly awesome EP, combining elements of metal with, at times, ambient instrumentals and progressive pacing. Lyrically and melodically the songs take the listener through a journey of rage, loss, melancholy, and derangement; at the end of which you're left wanting to go further down the rabbit hole that the band has opened up.
Agressive tones meet perfectly balanced pacing, showcasing true talent in the songwriting. Also presented is Ollipeist's ability to be themselves and let their originality shine, they're happy writing and performing their own way. There's no trying to be the next Slipknot here.
Track list: "From Within", "Of War And Storms", "Blinding Nether", "Agrona", "Ballad of Violence", "Decendancy", "Dementia", "A New Beginning".
Choice cuts are "Of War And Storms", "Ballad of Violence", and "A New Beginning".
Ollipeist gets a solid 4 out of 5 for their self titled EP.
The Philipsburg, NJ-based quartet is Joshua Inglin on guitar and vocals, Brad Holdsworth on guitar, John Lynn on bass guitar, and Scott Vannatta on drums. Check Ollipeist out at www.myspace.com/ollipeistmusic, www.sonicbids.com/ollipeist, and www.jango.com/music/Ollipeist.
