Darren Deschaine is a musician from Dunfermline and Unravel is his debut EP, due for release on 01/09/2023.

The instrumental EP has three tracks and is a masterclass in guitar playing, with some chaotic synth patterns thrown in for good measure.

An awesomely fantastic mix of anything metal, this EP has influences from industrial metal, metalcore and traditional heavy metal. That really does create a great soundscape for the listener, as they are taken on a sonic journey that is engaging and unique.

With heavy riffs thrown at the listener left, right and centre, the guitars really do kick you in the stomach, while the solos are clean and perfectly executed, really sending shivers down your spine. The drumming is energetic and the bass lines that shine through are meaty and totally in your face.

Although this is a guitar-based instrumental, it is unlike anything else I have heard and shows the immense talent that this guy has. The industrial sound that emits from the EP really caught my ear and it is this that really leads the sound.

As a debut EP, Darren should be immensely proud of what he has achieved with this and with the talent, professionalism, and aggressiveness he shows here, there really is a big future for him in the metal scene.

Absolutely loved this EP and listened to it half a dozen times on repeat while writing the review, never once tiring of it as there is just so much to listen to!

Please check out all social media on 01/09/2023 when this awesome debut is released and see what you think for yourself! You will not be disappointed! Definitely a 10 out of 10 from me!
