ABSYNTH AURA FREE

Meanwhile the band plough on behind her, heads down, occasionally kicking out a riff of real power whenever it wonвЂ™t distract from ClaudiaвЂ™s powerful presence and MicheleвЂ™s all-too-brief solo sizzles with authority before the track draws to a close. Capable of delivering a wide-eyed and innocent vocal when the mood takes her (check out the chorus) she can just as easily switch to gritty, leather-clad front woman mode when it is called for, and her performance on the verse is as gutsy as the chorus is pop-inflected melody. The guitars churn with a hint of nu-metal ferocity, but from the beginning it is ClaudiaвЂ™s show. Opening with вЂbelieve meвЂ™, itвЂ™s clear that Absynth Aura are capable of packing a mean punch. вЂUnbreakableвЂ™ is the bandвЂ™s first album, initially completed in 2010 itвЂ™s taken some time to filter out of Italy, and it is easily one of the most diverse albums in female-fronted metal, drawing from a range of influences over the course of its eleven, not always successful tracks.

The band formed around ClaudiaвЂ™s desire to craft a song for the вЂњvirus free generation showвЂќ, organised by the Charitable group CESVI (an Italian organisation that works for global solidarity) and the experience proved so positive that the musicians decided to join together full-time, thus forming Absynth Aura. Formed in 2007, Absynth Aura comprise four musicians вЂ“ the aforementioned Michele on guitars, the wonderfully voiced Claudia Saponi (of whom more later), Giorgio Terenziani on bass and Marco Renzi on drums. So having got what Absynth Aura are not out of the way, letвЂ™s look at what might make them worth your time.

However, now that weвЂ™ve got the tedious comparisons out of the way letвЂ™s start simply by saying that any further comparison is purely down to lazy writing and is undeserved by a band who have a far more varied sound than Lacuna Coil and, without wishing to put LC down, an infinitely better guitarist in the form of Michele Vioni whose soloвЂ™s rip apart more than a few tracks on thisВ interesting album. It is inevitable, given the derivative nature of the press, that Absynth Aura will be compared to lacuna Coil for the two simple reasons that they hail from Italy and they have a female singer.
