From Your Grave

Product Description
Growing up in the shadow of some of the greatest Death Metal acts of all time, Tampa, Florida’s THE ABSENCE are ready to claim their birthright, and reignite the Tampa Death Metal and U.S Death Metal scenes. Meshing the best of European influence with the undeniable southern Death influence, THE ABSENCE has emerged with a new brand of American Death that showcases a vast array of musical metal motivation. Smart arrangements, furious riffs and attention to writing actual songs with masterful instrumentation, set THE ABSENCE apart from many of today’s younger acts.

Customer Reviews:

EPIC!.......2007-07-10

I loved every bit of this album and I am still finding it wonderful. The guitar work is absolutely fantastic. The lead singer with his lion like beard, brings a rough voice that is a strong mid-level death metal growl that remains understandable and his lyrics only boost the songs that much more. Three cheers for these guys, can't wait for their new album in August.

The Next At The Gates?.......2007-05-09

Out of all the At The Gates influenced bands, I think The Absence creates the best music. In fact, I am completely willing to say that From Your Grave is a superior album to Slaughter Of The Soul. I was exposed to them when I heard the title track on a late-night metal radio show. Ever since then, my interest in them peaked and I had to get the album. After the first listen, it was quite evident that this is a five-star CD. The only flaw I can think of is that From Your Grave is far from original. However, that isn't enough of a reason to deduct a star.

1. Intro - Just An Intro
2. A Breath Beneath - 4.5/5
3. Necropolis - 5/5
4. From Your Grave - 5/5
5. Heaven Ablaze - 4/5
6. Summoning The Darkness - 5/5
7. Shattered - Interlude

9. My Ruin - 4.5/5
10. Seven Demons - 5/5

Paul Metal King doesn't know anything.......2007-02-09

Please disregard his review. This cd is amazing. Sounds a bit like old Melodic Death metal you haven't heard since high school. If At the Gates and In Flames had a baby The Absence would be it. From your Grave is a powerful metal cd which captivates your soul with great guitars and superb songwriting.These guys are destined to get really big in a few years.Unearth, Dozen Furies and everyone else doesn't do guitar harmonies as good as these guys . If you like these guys then check out "Against the Elements" from Beyond the Embrace because they sound similar.

wow, not your every day scream fest........2007-01-18

To preface this review, I'm in the office. I don't have the time or resources to review each song thoroughly.

First off, this album is up to par production-wise. I know this has been a problem for many metalblade releases in the past. This cd sounds great.

If you are a guitar player, this album is for you. Every song is littered with tasteful, skillful shredding that doesn't get stale. I don't like most of the current crop of metal guys like evergrey, in flames, KSE, etc., but "The Absence" is great. They have a real future if they can follow this up with a strong effort.

If you like anything melodic and can handle serious heaviness, buy this album right now. The band is a bunch of super nice Florida guys.

The ABSENCE - From Your Grave
-
Let's be honest here folks... Making a splash in the pool that is melodic metal is not an easy task now-a-days. You have dozens upon dozens of talented young bands that are making Melo-Death. One thing most of them lack is the roots of the genre... getting more caught up in the glory of Euro-inspired guitar melodies but selling the true-genre short with either, over ambitious break downs or Emo-filled power choruses. And this, my friends is where The Absence really shines! `From the Grace' comes off as something closer to In Flames `Whoracle' then say Soilwork's `Stabbing the drama'.

Honestly, The Absence hasn't reinvented anything with this release, but it is still a fantastic homage to the older days of Melo-Death. All the musicians are competent in their own rights... As expected the guitar playing (Peter Joesph & Patrick Pintaville) is superb. From great riffs to fantastic leads, the melody flows consistently from beginning to end. The bass (Nick Calaci) is pushed a bit far in the back (which is sadly typical in metal) but provides a good backdrop for the guitar interplay. The drumming (Jeramie Kling) is tight, and seems quite focused. I enjoy the fact that he doesn't overdue it behind the kit, showing restraint which is something that many other lack. The vocals, handled by Jamie Stewart, are your standard, At the Gates-Rasp, but it works well for them... Like mentioned above this CD sounds like it came out in 1995 not 2005. Also the production of Erik Rutan is incredible really capturing their music in a timeless feel, yet giving it a modern clean-up.

So what will the future hold for this Tampa 5-piece? If `From Your Grave' is an indication, (which obviously it is...) things can only progress, after all this is their debut.

Album Description

Julianne Baird writes: "Music and the social status it expressed was an integral part of Jane Austen's life. Her novels are replete with details of domestic musical activities. Accounts of public concerts and private balls as well as music programs with hired musicians fill her letters. A dedicated amateur herself, Austen ordinarily played at the pianoforte at least an hour a day before breakfast from the 8-book music collection now preserved in her home at Chawton. For nieces and nephews she practiced 'country dances,' a number of which appear in her collections. Austen painstakingly copied and bound music that especially interested her. Two books are in her own hand - one of piano pieces and the other (Book III), of vocal music, recorded here in its entirety. Some pieces contain her own suggestions for ornamentation. Prominent themes are naval affairs, country life, drinking songs, love, Turkish and Moorish motifs, female character pieces, and the French Revolution. The novels of Jane Austen reveal her as a keen observer of early 19th century English society. Now, through her Songbook, she herself springs to life: her special likes and dislikes, her boisterous sense of humor, her passions, the way she amused herself and what she was like relaxing with her family and friends." This is a very special album indeed.

Customer Reviews:

This CD is Nice..... But I like Jane Austen Companion Better.......2007-01-16

This CD is nice but not one that I will listen to often.
The fact that you get to hear what music Jane Austen liked is quite amazing. When you think I'm listening to music that Jane Austen listened to over 200 years ago.
However I'm not a great fan of Opera Music and that is probably why this CD is not one that I will listen to often.
But if you like listening to Opera Music. You will like this CD.

Beautiful vocal music.......2005-10-17

This collection is wonderful and gives us an opportunity to experience some of Austen's favorite music.

Album Description

This release by the award-winning Center City Brass Quintet showcases the depth and variety of music by the German-born composer Kurt Weill, beginning with a suite of songs from his best-known Threepenny Opera. This is followed by a collection of cabaret and art songs composed in Europe, and concludes with songs composed in America for the Broadway stage in collaboration with the likes of Ira Gershwin and Moss Hart. Every song is in a brand new arrangement for brass quintet, written especially for this recording. Fans of the Center City Brass Quintet's previous CD releases will enjoy the same rich sound, technical brilliance, and artistry they have come to expect from this fabulous ensemble which the American Record Guide has deemed "one of the strongest of today's brass quintets".

Beethoven: Songs from the British Isles.......2007-04-10

Beethoven was commissioned to compose music for British songs, but he was given free rein as to the music, not being constrained by the words. What he composed is marvelous, melodic, memorable, captivating, and haunting, to use just a few adjectives to describe this music. I have a 33-1/3 record (yes-vinyl) of other songs that he wrote for the Brits, and this CD is complementary to that - equally well performed. A person that likes OLD folksongs will be humming the tunes forthwith.

He was handsome, hot, had a rich, distinctive voice and was a vulgar SOB, but you had to love baritone Lawrence Tibbett's audacity in falsifying a composer's intentions while he made the music as exciting and flashy as possible. This two-disc collection take from the Stanford University Archives covers his famous roles in Carmen and Barber of Seville, plus his forays into pop tunes and even his rendition of the "Star Spangled Banner." It's an interesting time capsule since Tibbett touch on so many media--even movies. But even though most of these recordings predate his vocal decline in the 1940s, it's mostly for fans only. --David Patrick Stearns

Customer Reviews:

The Stanford Archive Series: Lawrence Tibbett.......2007-02-12

Buy it and learn what it was to sing when singing was a national pastime, not a yelling contest.

Lawrence Tibbett: An artist for all generations........2005-10-20

Lawrence Tibbett left a priceless legacy, not only to all baritones who would come after him, but to all singers: It's alright to color outside the lines; it's OK to interpret a role from your own emotions; dare to be different! This is what keeps opera vibrant and viable! From the swaggering Toreador to the chilling Iago to the tender "Under Your Spell" to the glorious "Glory Road," Tibbett proves his point. David Stearns,in his mean-spirited blog says, "for Tibbett fans only." Right! You will be! Just listen to this album!
