Dream Vision – Reves Review will start with opens and discusses the FIRST SIN: THE STRINGS/KEYS. Consists of the visualization of melodic post-rock melodies and various chords/riffage and synth/electronic parts

Let’s talk about the SECOND SIN: THE VOCALS, which involves shrieked vocals

Moving on to the THIRD SIN: THE PERCUSSIONS, which delves into the vast world of post-metal/black gazing drum patterns/beats

In our following discussion about the band’s musical work, we will focus on the FOURTH SIN, the overall DISCUSSION of the album. Immediately the listener presses that play button, one is welcomed to the opening track, LE DÉBUT, which welcomes the listener with warm atmospheric keys and beautiful work of the guitar -followed by a quick transition of synth-wave/electronic (with an -Esque GORILLAZ guitar vibe) atmosphere.

As one continues with their journey, a journey about “psychological and depression” as the lyrical topic, and the second track, ÂME, and the remaining five pieces where the music takes the listener on a musical journey of providing the listener’s ears with a musical void of bringing the listener to a new musical style, called “Blackwave” which perfectly describes DREAM VISION musical spectrum.

DREAM VISION music comes across as fragmented, with the metal or rock parts suddenly dropping into the ambient or orchestral wash and back, simultaneously, the album is magical, created by a perfect combination of providing the listener with an exciting and complex/experimental blend (influences in) of characteristics, such as the aesthetics and sound of black metal, blackgaze, post-rock/black, depressive black, background ambient wash, melodic post-rock melodies, synth-wave/electronic parts -thus creating this dream-visualization of transfixing and entertaining music to the listener’s ears which are provided and delivered by a strong composition (excellent and modern production in sound), within the music and songwriting, productive of dream-like of exceptional devilmanship.

Music might be considered as much noise as post-black metal/post-rock. In some songs, the attitude seems experimental— a relaxing piece that’s neither dull nor repetitive

I wanted to share our thoughts and MEMORABILIA on the FIFTH SIN. Bringing something new to the table, a new sound, a new style -just different and unique

Let’s discuss the ARTWORK of the SIXTH SIN. Is beautifully picturesque, eye-catching, and (a feeling somewhat) captures the lyrical concept

Finally, the review will close with the last sin, the SEVENTH SIN, the DISRELISH. With nothing to disrelish within the musical world of DREAM VISION. This concludes the Dream Vision – Reves Review
