Demon Head

'Hellfire Ocean Void' is composed by eight songs that unfold themselves effortlessly perfect in the tension between a delicate sense of composition and the uncompromising urgency with which the five musicians deliver the performance of each song. Mournful melodies of unearthly dimensions are played on piano and orchestrated with the use of classic rock instrumentation - electric guitars, bass, and drums. Dark and mystical chord progressions, sporadic guitar solos, chaotic arpeggio synthesizers, and the prophetic words of M.F.L are held together by the solid drum beats of J.W. Ambient recordings of acoustic instruments are accompanied by tape manipulation, which slowly develops into a haunting soundspace, showing B.G.N's skills as an avant-garde composer. Guitar leads morph into the breathtaking improvisations of T.G.N as the band's energetic center of bassist M.F leaves nothing to be questioned. With 'Hellfire Ocean Void', Demon Head have created a masterpiece in contemporary rock music. As any other truly original music, it is difficult to draw any similarities, since the music seems to hint at nothing but its own integrity: an integrity that is based upon the insight that Demon Head gains from loving and accepting the many clich�s and traditions that follow from playing rock music - and from that foundation moves far into the unknown, into the darkness and into our hearts.
