### Infinite Horizon: Soul reducer

#### 02/06/09 || GardensTale

I’m having a very hard time finding anything good about this album. I really am. Just look at the band name. Infinite Horizon. Let it roll off the tongue a few times. Alright, done laughing? Then let’s go down to the grinder, shall we?

Power metal it is, as you may have expected. Generally, power metal singers have ridiculous reaches, and even when it sounds hilariously idiotic, at least that should be to their credit. Not so much here. This singer has the reach of a baby’s arm. With leprosy. That’s paralyzed. It becomes snoringly boring about 20 seconds into the first song, and so Infinite Horizon doesn’t even have the humor value of bizarre falsettos to save them.

The pace of this pile of dung doesn’t help either. It crawls along by its loosening kneecaps. There’s more energy to be found in a dead dog. It just drags on and on, like a shambling zombie. Now fellows, if you want to play doom metal, don’t play power metal, play doom metal, okay? This shit is just embarrassing. Really. Don’t send us crap like this, I beg of you. It’s wasting everyone’s time. In a horrid way.

Do you like keyboards? Do you really, really like keyboards? That should be the only reason to listen to any of this, because it has more keyboards than your average trance party. For anything worthwhile in the guitar department, look elsewhere. It’s just repetitive riffs stacked upon each other. Solos? I think there were some on here, but the fact that I’m not even sure should say enough. Boring, boring, boring! This crap makes me want to try and scratch off my skin until I reach my skull. It sounds more entertaining.

Let’s not even begin about the ballad. It sounds like Elton John on a bad heroin trip.

And amidst this supreme snorefest, is there any redeeming factor? Not really. I think I heard half a decent chorus somewhere, but that shit ain’t cutting it. I realize I could have torn this steaming crap a couple of new assholes, but I save that for albums that are actively bad. The only thing this band does is being passive and void of skill or emotion in every fucking thing. A brick has more passion than this. Save yourself a snoozefest and avoid Infinite Horizon.

3 zzzzzzzzzzz… out of 10.
