Genre/Influences: Electro-pop.
Background/Info:
After a few noticeable
EP’s it’s not time to Patrik Hansson (Vanguard) to unleash his debut
solo-album.
Content:
“Eternal” takes off with
familiar cuts. “Evolve” and “Not Your Soldier” both are the title tracks from
the previous EP’s introducing us into the electro-pop universe of the Swedish
project. It’s a classical electro-pop driven sound, which is carried by solid
dance beats and the charismatic, powerful vocals of Hansson. A few other cuts
have been previously released at the aforementioned EP’s, but you’ll also
discover interesting new cuts, which simply confirm the potential of Uncreated.
This is catchy, but powerful electro-pop like Swedes can make!
+ + + :
“Evolve” remains an
absolute masterpiece, but I also have to mention “Is That What You Want” and
“Suffocated”, which both could be released as EP-title songs as well. The
secret sound formula of Patrik Hansson is quite easy: carrying melody lines,
danceable kicks injecting some power and great vocal lines. The sound feels
more like ‘classical’ electro-pop and different than his main project Vanguard.
The songs are well-crafted and elaborated.
– – – :
I’m not convinced by the
last song, which is more a kind of emotional try-out. Among the 10 songs left,
those who have already discovered the previously released EP’s will re-discover
5 songs so in the end the album only features 3 previously unknown songs. But
there’s no reason to complain!
Conclusion:
The main comparison
between both projects Patrik Hansson is involved with is the passion for
electro-music, but more important the great potential Vanguard and now
Uncreated showed at their debut work! Uncreated is not just a side-project,
that’s for sure!
Best songs:
“Evolve”, Is That What
You Want”, “Suffocated”, “Not Your
Soldier”, “You Know Nothing”, “A Greater Plan”.
