Salve a tutti gli utenti di questo fantastico e ricchissimo sito!

Oggi vi voglio parlare di un gruppo metal danese a mio parere sottovalutato (beh, questo aspetto forse è più un pregio che un difetto, constatata la pessima e scarsa qualità di certi musicisti "mainstream") dai grandi mass-media: gli Hatesphere, ed in particolare, dell'album "The Sickness Within" uscito sul finire del 2005.

La caratteristica forse più riconoscibile di questo gruppo è la voce del cantante Jacob Bredahl, ma anche gli altri componenti non scherzano affatto per classe e stile di esecuzione, come il batterista Anders Gyldenøhr ed il bassista Mikael Ehler.

Il disco inizia con l'eccellente "The White Fever", una scarica dirompente di vigore ed energia che già annuncia quale sarà l'andamento di tutto l' LP in questione. Altri episodi da ricordare sono "The Fallen Shall Rise In A River Of Blood", la title-track "Sickness Within", "Murderous Intent" e "Marked By Darkness" anche se tutto l' album globalmente si può considerare molto unitario e coeso.

Consiglio vivamente quest'album a tutti voi e non solo a coloro vogliano sfogare la loro tensione e fatica dopo una dura giornata di lavoro o di studio, perchè la musica contenuta in questo disco vale veramente tutti i soldi spesi per comprarlo fino all' ultimo centesimo.

Giudizio Finale: 5 su 5 ad occhi chiusi.

01   The White Fever (04:24)

So many times I've heard you call my name
The whisper from Angel City
White City come to me '- You know what I want, and you know what I crave
Now it's time
The Lady has landed

Lead by the Devil
Inferno come to me

Black sun rising '- Blood is boiling
Adventures thrilled
All my hopes fulfilled

Destroy
Abuse
I'm in for the blow

Like a zombie '- Flying mountain high
This dose '- oh so good '- oh so bad, I speak in tongues
My insides are shaking
Still on top of the world of all worlds
With ego and sin as my keywords

Lead by the Devil
Inferno come to me

Destroy
Abuse
I'm in for the blow

Crack of dawn
The end of the line
This is my last goodbye

02   The Fallen Shall Rise in a River of Blood (04:19)

03   Reaper of Life (04:19)

A destined unseen brutal force
Around us every day
Determining when it’s time
For us to live or die

He’s all around us now
Awaiting his chance to strike

Understand his grand design
Into which we all fit
Understand that if you’re fortunate
He’ll visit all over again

There is no escape
He will claim his right

He’s all around us now
Awaiting his chance to strike
There is no escape
He will claim his right

In the end
No one escapes his plan
Today may very well be
Your time to shake his hand

Your life is at its end
He will put you in your grave

He is coming to take away your life
For eternity you shall pay

A destined unseen brutal force
Around us every day
Determining when it’s time
For us to live or die

There is no escape
He will claim his right

He’s all around us now
Awaiting his chance to strike
There is no escape
He will claim his right

11   Marked by Darkness (05:08)

Hear the screams from the underworld
And feel the evil come creeping on you
All these lovely creatures gathered here tonight

Legions of death lead by me
I, the master in command

The sign of destruction
Into battle with a force so strong
I, am marked by darkness
I have no mercy

Oh yes, blood and guts will be spilled
This method of destruction '- crushing you and your world

Legions of death lead by me
I, the master in command

Let in rain with blood
Let it rain in blood upon my name

[Solo '- Steve Smyth]

Blood and guts spilled now
More blood soaks the ground
See the sky turn black
As the stench of corpses fills the air

Let it rain with blood upon my name
My wrath will take you, I have no regrets
My blackened heart will see you all dead

Legions of death lead by me
I, the master in command

Let in rain with blood
Let it rain in blood upon my name

[Solo '- Peter]
