Dangerous Time for the Dead – Father Time Review: A Traditional Heavy Metal band from the Netherlands. On September 3rd, 2021, Dangerous Times For The Dead released their latest independent single, Father Time, which would gratify Dio, Iron Maiden, Saxon, and Judas Priest fans.
Dangerous Time for the Dead – Father Time Review opens and discusses the FIRST SIN: THE STRINGS/KEYS, which comprise twin fuel pumping (biting aggressively of strong) heavy-powerful chord ripping of the riffs, filled with melodies and catchy fret-board solos, thumping bass hooks
Let’s talk about the SECOND SIN: THE VOCALS, which involves energetic metal singing.
Moving on to the THIRD SIN: THE PERCUSSIONS, which delves into the vast world of thumping drum patterns and floor peddle beats
In our following discussion about the band’s musical work, we will focus on the FOURTH SIN, the overall DISCUSSION of the single. Before heading into this release, FATHER TIME is slightly different (but keeps the meaningful concept in their music) and has a much longer time run.
As soon as the listener presses that play button, one is welcome to an opening brief sound of bustling wind and clean acoustic, then taking the listener on a ‘theatrically play’ journey (done in a timely fashion) that utilises (the piece/scene are broken down into principal elements) which included; epic of fast-heavy (aggressive attitude), slow melodic parts, solo of chord/rhythmic playing, hormones, adding a melancholy (especially in the chords, of giving this vibe of (the song) FOREVER AUTUMN (from the ‘War of the Worlds’ soundtrack), near the end of the piece, one will hear -Esque KING DIAMOND evil shrieks (to give that extra horror/theatre atmosphere); while the lyrical theme on THE EVIL FATHER TIME (this is where (I think) principal elements come into play) “Was everything better in the past? Will it be better in the future? Are we slaves of Father Time?”
Keeping the eighties-inspired flame alight of capture and carrying the listener back-in-time of the eighties-inspired trademark sound, but also capturing this epic soundscape atmosphere of metal acts, such as HELLOWEEN, BLIND GUARDIAN, DEMONS & WIZARDS, IRON MAIDEN, and KING DIAMOND.
DANGEROUS TIMES FOR THE DEAD created this transfixing release stronger than their previous release—not to be missed (nor their other releases); this is headbanging and fist-pumping of the eighties and a new wave of traditional heavy metal delight from start to finish.
Side note: this band (again) truly captures something honestly with their music; the band puts so much effort into bringing it to life in this elaborate and entertaining manner […]
I wanted to share our thoughts and MEMORABILIA on the FIFTH SIN. Simultaneously, the single has created and delivered fantastic devilmanship, sharp and clean modern production, and sound, including straightforward lyrics that one can sing along to.
Let’s discuss the ARTWORK of the SIXTH SIN. Like all their artwork, each artwork, including this one – captures the lyrical theme and something unique.
Finally, the review will close with the last sin, the SEVENTH SIN, the DISRELISH. Since there is nothing to disrelish within the musical world of DANGEROUS TIMES FOR THE DEAD. This concludes the Dangerous Time for the Dead – Father Time Review.
