HELALYN FLOWERS - Beware Of Light feat. Chris Pohl (Alfa Matrix)

English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    12 oktober 2015

The Italian duo Helalyn Flowers comes back by surprise with an amazing duet and a new 6-track EP!


The Beware Of Light EP is first of all the result of an amazing collaboration with Out Of Line artist Chris Pohl (Blutengel, Terminal Choice, etc.) bringing us a catchy and glamorous vocal duo together with Nøemi Aurora for a darker and more romantic goth version of this dynamic and highly melodic, symphonic and bombastic title song. Be aware that this track might haunt your head for a long time, it will stick to you like the strongest glue on earth and you’ll adore it! It’s clear that this vocal duet is made to shine and rise! I want more stuff like this! Surprisingly enough the version without Chris Pohl is also worth it, that says enough about the quality of the original track.

Another great thing on this short EP is the  metal/industrial rock track Karmageddon (do you remember the game with the same name, well this one fits perfect as title track for the game). It reveals the other side of the band: harsh, angry, aggressive, heavy guitar riffs, strong electro beats and powered up synths.

Karmageddon (The Psychic Force rmx feat. DJ Michelle) changes it into a more club orientated version, whilst XMH turns Beware of the Light into a more synth driven track. Aesthetische turns Karmageddon into a more beat and techno driven track.

Well, one thing is clear: the original tracks are stronger than the remixes and the new duet is simply amazing, like bound to be, written in the stars! I can only be extremely happy about it! I’m looking forward to get more material like this! You did a perfect job!
