Experimental metal
2006 release From the Sun, the Rain, the Wind, the Soil is the second album from eclectic New York metal outfit Mahavatar. The best description of this album is "experimental". There are elements of death metal, doom metal, Middle Eastern sounds, stoner grooves, harsh female vocals, you name it. The result is somewhere between White Zombie and Orphaned Land.
Ultimately, this album is just a little too "out there" for me. The band's experimentation with different styles is interesting, but in the end it just feels like they haven't mastered any of them. I have to give them credit for effort and for not following anyone else's playbook, but I just can't get into what I'm hearing (though I suspect one's enjoyment of the album might increase when mind-altering substances are involved).
From the Sun, the Rain, the Wind, the Soil is an album worth trying if you're into some of the more avant garde bands in the extreme music genres, but it's definitely not for everyone.
