Two years after the band’s great With Us Until You’re Dead, which came along as an emotional manifest fusing orchestral, electronic, sentimental and progressive elements, London-based collective ARCHIVE is about to strengthen their inventive genius and creativeness. Axiom, their epic new album, features all the before mentioned characteristics, however adding a spiritual level full of haunting metaphors.

The opening track Distorted Angels stands out due to its balladesque musical background and its haunting singing. It is very melodic and full of harmonious elements that create a kind of post-apocalyptic scenery. One in which rays of sunshine are cleaving dark clouds. The strings contribute to this dramatic tension, leaving you with great expectations for what’s still to come. The title track Axiom is opened by the church bells of Greenwich – a sound element that became an important part of the album genesis, as Darius Keeler, the long-standing core of ARCHIVE alongside Danny Griffiths, admits. The epic and reviving atmosphere continues, created by an angel-like choir singing background. But there are also darker passages, suggesting that something slightly threatening is creeping through the heavenly realm. The sinister feeling is supported by creepy noises – sort of a monstrous breath. This ambiguous concept is emphasized by beautifully arranged electronic elements, creating a velvet sound driven by dancing beats and guitar riffs. The ten-minute track is a very catchy and stimulating, purely instrumental piece of music. The following Baptism is an energetic, unsettling piece, featuring the band-typical avantgarde style, combining electronic and industrial rock elements. Repetitive lyrics add to this restless song that seems like a desperate call.

Particularly, the album’s seven tracks continuously merge, thereby creating a 40-minute musical experience, which has rightly so been turned into a soundtrack. Transmission Data Terminated is another song featuring complex sound elements creating inquietude, in spite of its contradictory lyrics ‘It’s time for quiet. Let the quiet settle in.’ Shifting between different singers only contributes to this feeling of movement in all of its literal meanings… …read more…
