Dying Signals - The Last Of A Dying Breed

What we’ve got here is a 3 song demo by Dying Signals, hailing from Malta. I think this is the first time I’ve ever listened to a band from Malta and I have to say I’m fairly impressed. This band plays mid- and up tempo Death Metal with some influences from Thrash Metal. The riffs are not difficult most of the time, but very effective by being catchy. The vocals are well performed, guttural vocals and midpitched grunts alternate very well with each other. What bothers me a bit is the amount of Hardcore breakdowns these guys throw in, they aren’t performed bad, but they use them simply to much. A big plus on this demo is the production, which lies above the average demo production. In short, Dying Signals delivers an above average Death Metal demo. If you’re looking for something innovative don’t look here, but if you’re looking for some good Death Metal, this band is certainly something to look out for.
