The First Three Sins of Father Time
Let’s start by discussing the first three sins of Dangerous Times for the Dead and their single, Father Time
The First Sin, The Strings/Keys: Comprise heavy twin and powerful riffs filled with melodies, groovy and progressive chords, epic fretboard solos, and thumping bass hooks. The Second Sin, The Vocals: Involves energetic metal singing. The Third Sin—The Percussions: Delves into the vast world of thumping drum patterns and floor peddle beats.
The Fourth Sin: Overall Discussion:
Transported straight out of the 80s; a hard and heavy, classic but fresh sound.
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 utilizes (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, 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 […]
