Deadly Melancholy - EP review

This one came out unexpected. I mean, what did Scythe of Luna (formerly known as Corthax; even earlier known as Cherryleaf) have in their assets besides the habit of changing their name frequently? One (just one!) Vocaloid song heavy enough to be of VMW’s interest, ‘Insomnia’. Released a year and a half ago. Still too much synthetic, too 8-bit-ish and too unconventional from trVe die-hard metal point of view but appealing anyway.

Not that much, I’d say. Sure, there were another releases, all pure electronic, so that hardly matters. But now all of a sudden we have ‘Deadly Melancholy’, an EP, 6 tracks and 27 minutes of intense sound, and now it totally matters! The EP was released under Vocallective label, and guys there swear they pushed release dates of other albums to clear the road for ‘Deadly Melancholy’ – so much they were impressed by it. Heh, I’d discount their words, record label is a cheesy business… still, for good music the sooner we get it, the better!
