When you hear anything Avant-garde, it's not normal, it's a special form of being that will best listened if you are on some form of acid or shrooms, "Anthology II: Links from the Dead Trinity" is no acception either. This is the most "all over the place" album I've heard in a long time and I fucking love it with all my heart. Nehl Aelin drives this wrecking force of a band, perfecting everything from growls to low end jazzy type vocals, even an operatic style that seems to be very welcome in avant-garde these days.
If you are asking yourself, "Where is Anthology I.....?", there is no album that exist.....yet. It seems as if Akphaezya works in a weird form of developing music and releasing stuff. Listening to this record, you might hear things that don't exist, at times it feels like they have a whole orchestra behind them but that is far from the case. Normal band: Guitar, Bass, Vocals, Keyboards and Drums, doesn't make sense to me either people but I go with it, not sure why though. One minute you could be headbanging so hard your face is smashing against your keyboard and the next second you could be listening to one of the most beautiful, mellow piece of art you'll ever heard in your entire life.
This review may not make sense at all, that's because it's hard to review an album that doesn't make any damn sense. You will scratch your head while listening to this album, on the other hand you'll fall in love with it from the very beginning.
In the world of Akphaezya, everything is possible but nobody can do anything but Akphaezya. A beautiful world filled with unexplainable objects and floating elephants, that's what you get in when you travel to Akphaezya. Enjoy the time you spend at this place because they only have one album as of right now.
