I suppose, when you'll read all the information about this band, that you'll say to yourself "damn, again one more new Death/Black Metal band?". On a side you're right Mindripper, this new young combo from France, plays Black/Death Metal but don't believe that we are in front of a new Power/Black Metal band à la Children Of Bodom, at the opposite Mindripper is a real band of Black Metal, touched by the melodies and the spirit of Death Metal and that's not so bad yeah?

"Kahos Humana" is a really nice surprise, the band is young but it's good to see that they are already really experienced. The sound of the album is really nice, the production is near of the perfection and that's already a good point for our four dudes, but also the music of this first album is really well done.

Actually we are in front of a powerful but melodic Black Metal, the vocals in the true spirit of the music are really well done and aggressive but above all that's the riffs that are impressive. The music remembers me a bit the one of Himinbjorg, without the Pagan symbolic, if you want an idea. That's aggressive and heavy but always with nice melodies and Mindripper knew how to establish its own particular style, a real Black Metal with some few touches (the best ones actually) that we can find in melodic Death Metal.

At the end when I listen to the first album of this young talented combo, I'm sure that a lot of good things will come to them. They are serious and their music is really well done. "Kahos Humana" is a nice first shout and I have some good hopes for this band because when I see the quality of "Kahos Humana" no doubt that their upcoming albums will be as good as this one and even better. If you're a fan of this kind of music you should have a look on this album and support a young band that really deserve it.
