************************
//Потрясающе разнообразная и нестандартная музыка, совмещающая в
себе уйму стилей и направлений. Здесь есть и паверные гитарные вставки,
и блэкушный бласт бит, и десовые гитары, и дарковые, очень красивые
симфонические вставки.
Приставка progressive тут приписано не с проста - музыканты в
каждом трэке играючи меняют ритмы, мелодии и стили. Их гитарные, и не
только, соло берут за душу, а мастерство их исполнения заставило бы
братьев Эммотов, услышь они Persefone, отложить гитары и задуматься о
смене профессии.
В общем очень красивая и мелодичная музыка, если вас не пугают так называемые harsh vocals, которых тут в избытке.//

Андоррская мелодик-дэтовая команда Persefone выпустила свой второй
альбом "Core". Уже на своём первом альбоме группа играла не простой
мелодик-дэт, но сейчас ребята выложились на полную и создали нечто
совсем новое и прекрасное. Это можно назвать - symphonic progressive
melodic death metal, а если говорить подробней, то это великолепная
эклектичная смесь наработок Children of Bodom, Symphony X, Opeth,
Death, The Gathering с всевозможными вокалами: лидирующим скримингом,
гроулингом, чистыми мужским и женским, с элементами джаза и
классической музыки, разнообразнейшими сменами ритма и настроений. Три
20-минутные песни нисколько не утомляют - настолько красива, грамотна и
совершенна музыка! Песни не создают впечатление скомканных, надуманно
соединённых кусков - нет, это цельные произведения, которых
действительно коснулась "длань гения". Кавер на Megadeth, отличное
мягкое звучание, а также приятнейшее оформление дают лишних поводов,
чтобы вы обязательно прослушали этот альбом. ****************************** Quote Андоррская

А напоследок хочется сказать, что, поистине, метал ещё жив и способен рождать новые гениальные группы!
источник  Quote Persefone
comes from Andorra (the little country in the mountains between Spain
and France) and this is probably not the first time that you hear
something about this band on Metal Storm. Maybe that some of you
remember my (old) review about their first release "Truth Inside The
Shades" which was, back in 2004, was one of my best discovering and
surprises of the year. Finally, the band has the chance to release
their second album in 2006 and I will let you know why it was a mistake
that nobody here (including me) have tried to talk about this band
before today. "Core" is a masterpiece of extreme Progressive Metal,
don't miss it if you want to discover that extreme Metal and
Progressive music can perfectly be associated. "Core" has nothing
to do with the word that we use to name some kind of music, you know
Metalcore, Hardcore etc… Actually here, we're in front of a Greek word
which means daughter and since that this new concept album is about the
Greek legend of Persephone, I suppose now that you understand why the
band has used this title. Now that this important explanation is done,
let's talk a bit about the last album of Persefone. Their first release
was an excellent piece of Melodic Death Metal with strong progressive
parts. It was a great release but let me tell you that "Core" in
comparison is a lot more complex and progressive, that's just
impressive. The album is divided in three big parts (which are all
divided in sub-tracks), the main lyric theme, of course is about
Persephone and the album, through is music, perfectly describe the
legend of this beautiful girl which finally became the queen of deaths.
The music of Persefone is really smart and intelligent, I don't really
want to compare the band to other combos but it's hard to avoid the
name of Symphony X. Though, the Andorran band is an extreme Metal act
and this is not the voice of the female singer Marta Masafret which
kill the violence that we were able to find in the first release of the
combo, "Truth Inside The Shades". Maybe that "Core" is a bit softer but
if we lose a bit of violence in the riffs, we win a ton of excellent
progressive parts and that's a good thing in my opinion. "Core",
obviously is a pure album of Progressive Metal with excellent guitars
and keyboards soli. The riffs are strong like iron but they're always
smart and useful. If you like Progressive extreme Metal (we're not in
front of Necrophagist), with good Death vocals (and nice clean too by
the way) in addition of killer riffs and superb progressive passages,
this album is a must! The album was recorded in Andorra but
mastered in Sweden by Peter In De Betou. The work is perfect and the
sound is just great. If you add that the artwork was done by Annika Von
Holdt and that of course the performance of the musicians is perfect,
it's really hard to find anything wrong here. Maybe, but that's a small
maybe, that some people will not enter easily in the music of Persefone
which is really complex but it's just a matter of time in my opinion
and if they try to listen to the album, it should be ok with a bit of
time. I know that the album is full of break, it's pure Prog but a
"song" like "Seed: Core & Persephone" is catchy as hell so I'm sure
that 99% of the metalheads should be attracted by the release. This is
just perfect! It's maybe weird to read that Persefone comes
from a tiny little country like Andorra but there, Metal is popular and
it's great to see that a band like Persefone is becoming famous and
that some young bands now are following their steps. I really hope that
Persefone will get the success that they deserve soon but I'm sure that
their upcoming album will definitely open the doors of the heaven of
Metal bands. Before that day, please have a look on "Core" (and don't
forget their first release too), we're just in front of a great album
of Metal.
