Heavy Metal
and its manifold related genres are often divided into a dichotomy of either
being highly artistic and sophisticated or being brutal and harsh. And then
there are certain artists that manage to cross this boundary and produce music
that combines the elements of both realms. One of those acts is Ceddy Braugs
who recently released his debut EP “Systm Ovrload”. On seven new tracks, the
gifted artist that is defined by freedom and honesty, by intelligent song
structures and absolutely violent sounds at the same time.
Ceddy
Braugs creates symphonic backgrounds that grind on brutal breakdowns and lets
straightforward Heavy and Prog Metal passages flow into complex rhythms. And
despite the ambivalence of these sonic elements, “Systm Ovrload” keeps its coherent
structure, and feels like a cohesive narrative in which easy-going parts such
as the Blues riff in ‘Bloodlust’ seamlessly merge into brutal Nu Metal breaks.
On his debut EP “Systm Ovrload”, Ceddy Braugs combines brutal and nihilist
destructive power of 1990s Korn or Slipknot with Prog Metal à la Mastodon and
artistry of Mr Bungle and even with Symphony X-like symphonic elements. Top
that with stunning vocal versatility ranging from harsh screams and growls to strong,
rich in timbre, cleans.
This is pure freedom of arts, and expressionist music. Listen to "Systm Ovrload" now and witness how a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and true artist is exploring the limits of alternative and progressive music and finding beauty in the madness.
Music from every post will stay in the MangoRotation playlist for 14 days.
