Единственная рецензия на единственный альбом
Why should you listen to this album? Everybody knows thrash was perfected in 1986, and everything that followed withered in comparison, right? Well, I'll give you partial credit for that one, because this is so much more than your run of the mill 'I-wanna-be-just-like-Kerry-King' thrash metal. Though there's no denying that they belong in this genre, there's nearly nothing on this album that even resembles Slayer. And that ain't a bad thing. In a way, this band reminds me of Rumpelstiltskin Grinder; they might be tagged as 'thrash', but I'd say 'alternative' would fit them better as they both blend such a wide array of genres into their songs.
You doubt their powers? Just give the first track a listen, the almost 10 minute instant classic 'Advanced Mind Control', and I think you'll be pleasently surprised. Although they blast some furious beats (see 'Power Spirit') and shred out some wicked riffs that would force the devil himself on his knees, they still manage to incorporate some fresh ideas and give this album its own personality. Twin melodies that would get them aknowledging nods from Iron Maiden, facemelting solos and guitar mastery that you haven't seen the likes of since Dimebag, and there's even some progressive elements to be found here too! Comparing them to these legends might be as blasphemous as the Beatles being bigger than Jesus, I'm simply pointing out the talent and potential we're dealing with here. Just have a listen to the innovative riffs on tracks like 'Nuclear Bummer' and 'Time Is the Living'.
Amidst all the chaos, they make room for the soothing, acoustic instrumental that is the title track. A beautiful blend of the gentle plucking of nylon strings and echoing pianokeys, this is one of the songs that shows how talented and creative these guys are, and just how much potential they've got. That's also my reason for not giving them a full 100% on this review. Even though this is an amazing piece of work, I feel that this is just the beginning of something huge, and they've got the potential to do even better. While their contemporaries are just punishing their instruments, attempting to be the most noisy and brutal thing to hit the world of thrash since Kreator, Children are already miles ahead of them for three obvious reasons; actual, musical talent, no sense of restrictions or limitations, and most importantly, a mind of their own.
And thats my overall impression. Thrash is probably one of the genres that has the most critical fans, almost impossible to please. If it ain't 'Angel of Death', it's shit, and I think thats why so many bands play it safe and stick to the same old recipe, not daring to be different. This genre is due for a revolution, and Children just might the start of it all...

bio: It would be easy to describe Deas Vail simply by pointing at vocalist Wes Blaylock's upper register range and falsetto and then to slap on the indie label. Granted, it's an unmistakable voice that sounds as if it bides its time floating amid the stars, and so, is a major part of the band's sound. But there's so much more beyond that soaring voice. To start, the band's debut All the Houses Look the Same, features the unfailingly sharp and frenetic guitar work of Andy Moore (think Chris Walla or Jonny Greenwood), whose riffs are as memorable as any of the ridiculously high notes that Blaylock hits. Moore's work on the record sets a tone in line with America's finest indie rock (Death Cab for Cutie, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah) and Europe's best-kept secrets (Mew, Kashmir). But in no way does the album, produced by Mark Lee Townsend (Relient K), rely on any particular mix of instrumentation. By the time the manic guitar of Rewind fades away, it is replaced by the piano-led Shoreline, courtesy of keyboardist Laura Blaylock, Wes' wife. The song also features a haunting string arrangement by the Blaylocks and the driving and clever rhythm section of drummer Kelsey Harelson and bassist Justin Froning backs all of it. Formed while its members were students at Arkansas Tech in the Midwestern hamlet of Russellville, the band has gone through several different members before settling in with its current lineup for the past two-and-a-half years. While at school, Blaylock began writing songs he initially envisioned as solo works, but when coupled with an affinity for the indie-rock scene, Deas Vail was born. Blaylock discovered and embraced the indie rock scene his senior year of high school, eschewing the bluegrass and folk enriched home he grew up in (his sister Hannah fronts bluegrass/country outfit Eden's Edge). When we started, it was something we wanted to do because we enjoy music, Blaylock said. We write songs because we love songs. They make us happy or explain an experience. That's why I grab hold of these songs and love them. It's something we really care about. Upon the record's release last spring, the band took on a healthy touring schedule that saw them crisscrossing the country for much of the year. Supporting acts like Lost Ocean, John Reuben and Edison Glass helped build the band's fanbase, a trend they would like to continue this year as the band feels their live show is essential to the experience and that more new fans can be made with this album. To us, playing live is just as important as making records, maybe more, Blaylock said. Even if we get tired of playing these songs, there's meaning in the lyrics and we still feel like it's good music.
