Review: If you never heard of Ephel Duath you should check your local distributor to buy their albums as this is one of the most curagous metal bands of our times. They were born as a band in 1998 and since then they've released 3 very different albums (in fact the second one is a collection of their demos remeastered). This one is their fourth opus to date. In my oppinion more aventurous than that one can't go anywhere as this one is the weirdest thing hitting the scene lately. "Pain Necessary to Know" really teach you about pain and its different strikes. Now we are attacked with an impressive twisted progressive jazz metal music pushed much further than the Dillinger Escape Plan or Psychotic Waltz did or does. Ephel Duath are establishing themselves a pretty good name beside all the other innovators of the scene, that's why this CD is a must for anyone of you who's into new, original sonorities. "Pain..." is made of: impressively twisted jazz and metal guitar leads mixed up with some melodic ones, sharp and very effective rhythmic section, different effects and samples, and last but not least those pain-driven vocal touches, very aggressive, with an industrial touch and mixed to be somewhere near the instruments not in front of them (I've read that's the whole point of the vocals, to be one of the instruments). Great, imposing work! A masterpiece!
