My review: Ground Nero - Stars

 Ground Nero - Stars

Let the spotlight shine on wonderful Belgium. This band has written a temporal, stylistic miracle of undoubted quality, capable of scratching the soul even out of steel. Think of the gloomy Fields of the Nephilim on a rainy day, of Joy Division with the absence of any will to live, and you will have Stars, the cloudburst of the heart, the slowness of the procession contemplating the sky and making earthly living absent, a sadness that walks and causes arthritis in the hands of the mind, where no ark will be waiting to save us

Shamanic, rigid, connecting Darkwave to Coldwave, Gothic Rock to Post-Punk, but this is only the surface, a fact that does not establish the value of this wave of blackish smoke...

A track that hurts, serves the cause of awareness, punishes, and helps truth not surround itself with deception. Bleak, sombre, it can analyse the increasingly black mood and kiss it...
