"…As usual with this conductor, transparency of texture is paramount, often revealing details that go unnoticed in others’ readings, and his subtle plasticity of phrasing keeps the music fluid and moving forward. Thus in a work like the Mozart Variations, one may prefer the more straightforward conducting of Eduard van Beinum in the Guild set, but one will find much more to hear in the Segerstam performance…" ~Fanfare
Death metal from the Netherlands, Bodyfarm subscribe to the tried and true principles of the genre on their second studio album "The Coming Scourge". The four-piece perform with the spirit of the early 90's European scene in terms of their tones, production quality, and riff selection. The eerie horror trilling within "Frontline Massacre" which rolls into an evil growling escapade for guitarist/ vocalist Thomas Wouters, the sneaky slow riff roll against steady Mathieu Westerveld bass plodding that starts "Vortex of Terror", the lull of doom that signals "The Frozen Halls" as each measured word matches the depressive feel of the arrangement - Bodyfarm exemplify solid mechanics in terms of writing and performance.
