Akurion drops their single on metalsucks.net @metalsucks @akurionofficial

on By

Today we get the chance to hear Akurion for the first time. Think of Cryptopsy vocals from “Whisper Supremecy”  as well as ” and then you’ll beg” Mike Disalvo  who has a great voice for metal. The style he has is like a low and heavy  but rapid response  decimating everything that is in his path. I can see from the early days of Cryptopsy the style he had, and then  ten years later you can hear the newer bands trying to get those vocals.

Add in some killer technical death metal drumming like Tommy McKinnonTom M

who I heard for the first time when listening to the Neuraxis album Trilateral Progression (killer album) I couldn’t resist to listen to that album while writing this. Tommy is a great drummer, and follows the changes well. I am excited to see what Tommy sounds like with Akurion. It definitely will not disapoint as you also have a bad ass bass player, that has played with both Neuraxis, and Cryptopsy (currently playing in Cryptopsy).  Olivier Pinard is like a cool calm guy until he gets into the music. To see this guy live is like watching a transformation take place. He is a mean machine  tearing it up on the bass. I am excited to hear Akurion ‘s single,  listening to all the different elements fused into this project. Oli

To top this project off you have Rob Milley who has been with Neuraxis since the early days,  basically pop any Neuraxis album you can find into your player, and you will be listening to Rob shredding and playing the guitars in  the most brutal, technical, yet his solo’s have a melodic feel to them as well.

What you have here is the make up of a Candian technical metal supergroup. They are simultaneously going to obliterate our senses and educate us.  Call it “technical metal 101 ”   sit back, listen to “Yet ye see them not” and get ready to be blown away. Hit the play button and hold on to your seat, its going to get interesting in a moment.

Some of you may have had a chance to read my interview with Olivier Pinard, the bass player for the legendary Canadian metal band Cryptopsy. Well he just blew me away with the news of a side project he has been working on.

Check this out take Mike Disalvo ( former vocalist for Cryptopsy  from the Whisper Supremecy, And then  You’ll Beg albums) then you have Tommy Mckinnon ( former drummer for Neuraxis) Rob Milley ( guitarist for Neuraxis)  and of course the bass extrordianaire Olivier Pinard ( bassist for Cryptopsy)put them together and you have Akurion!

This news gets me excited, because the first time I had ever heard Cryptopsy was with Disalvo on vocals. Then pair in the fact that the first time I heard Neuraxis they had McKinnon on the drums. This is a super group of members from killer Canadian metal bands. I cannot wait until they put out an album, i will jump on that the moment it is released. This level of excitement you could find me sitting in my car parked. Blasting the music through my speakers. You can speculate that  I may end up breathing heavy and fogging up the windows, that is just how killer this news is. Mike Disalvo had this to say ” “We have been hard at work writing the album and we are excited to release the first wave of Akurion video spots. We all feel that this project has something strong to say””

Don’t take my word for it check out what The Guys had to say on their facebook page;

Mark my words when more information comes out I will be on top of that, and will make sure I do a review of the album.
