Dinosaur Dying Pose – No Signal of Life
Their new album ‘No Signal of Life’ captures a hypothetical situation that the top of the world is upon us, by way of raucous tracks mixed with dialogue items to maintain us linked to the story we’re being instructed.
The album begins with a 1940’s model emergency announcement on monitor 1 titled ‘LOG CH-29:Emergency Override’. This announcement offers us, the listeners, an concept for the scene being set during the album.
The radio callout tells us that backup energy is the one factor preserving them operating and urges listeners to preserve what energy they’ve. This leads us into monitor 2, ‘Dancing on the finish of the world’, which opens with an lively guitar riff and a punchy drum monitor, adopted by rebel-like vocals. The vigorous monitor then takes a flip, into an nearly doomy bridge, giving the album a promising begin after an nearly ethereal however hard-hitting breakdown, we’re taken into an assertive guitar riff, throwing us straight into monitor 3.
Observe 3 is a follow-up radio announcement titled‘ LOG CH-46 Outpost Delta’, which takes us additional into the story of what the album is making an attempt to inform us, nearly taking us by way of to the subsequent chapter if it have been a e book. We hear from a personality named ‘Izzy’ who tells us she has been looking for indicators of life by speaking by way of messages in bottles thrown into the ocean.
‘Hurricane’ or monitor 4 begins with a hypnotic guitar melody which shortly progresses into one thing heavier and extra explosive. That is for certain a full-bodied, toe-tapping quantity.
Into monitor 5, and we get one other snippet into the story by way of one other radio announcement, ‘LOG CH 71 – Forest Recon’. Listeners are made conscious that there are no indicators of life, which provides us not solely the monitor that impressed the album title but in addition how isolating and quiet the world has now turn into. We’re given an concept of stillness. Throughout this announcement, the speaker additionally exclaims, “I’ve been strolling 3 days straight, the forest to the North..One thing’s in it, I hear it at evening”, which proceeds properly into monitor 6 ‘Whispers’, which opens with the lyric ‘I hear whispers by way of the bushes’
Observe 7, recognized on the album as ‘Recovered file’, acts as a type of interlude which abruptly throws us into monitor 8, ‘Promote Your self’. An aggressive drum monitor and daring bass gives a bouncy rhythm part. With hard-hitting lyrics coming in, this expressive track is well the heaviest monitor on the album. An natural guitar solo main into a brief beefy bass solo which might have any reside crowd clapping to the tempo in unison.
As we discover ourselves attending to the top of the story, with monitor 9 comes extra scene-setting dialogue. Right here, we’re instructed there could also be indicators of life, nevertheless, might it’s a misery name? Might it’s bait? Who is aware of?! In the course of the dialogue of monitor 9, the speaker referred to as Michael states, “Perhaps I’m chasing ghosts”, which properly runs into monitor 1,0 aptly named ‘Chasing Ghosts’.
One other electrifying monitor bringing us sharp guitar riffs, crushing drums and people rebel-like vocals we heard initially in ‘Dancing on the finish of the world. ‘Chasing Ghosts’ is an articulate, highly effective track for certain, that catchy refrain shall be caught in your head earlier than it.
We’re now onto the eleventh and remaining track on the album, so how does it finish? With a remaining announcement over the radio. We hear that we’re now certainly on the finish of the world. We all know this by being instructed “mills are coughing”, “fires on the horizon” & “smoke that by no means clears”. It is a good option to finish and spherical up the album, as we’re taken by way of a collection of occasions by way of dialogue tracks and vocal tracks, which is an uncommon however excellent idea for an album.
For those who loved this album, look out for his or her new single ‘New Associates’ coming later within the 12 months!
