Deftones mit 'White Pony'. Silverchair mit 'Neon Ballroom'. Radiohead mit 'OK Computer': Manchmal erreichen Künstler erst dann ihren gebührenden Platz, wenn sie ausgetretene Pfade verlassen. Mit Konventionen brechen. Grenzen überschreiten. Horizonte erweitern. Und somit ihr bisheriges, bereits außergewöhnliches Schaffen noch einmal deutlich in den Schatten stellen. AN EARLY CASCADE aus Stuttgart haben ein neues Album aufgenommen. Eines, das mit Konventionen bricht, Grenzen überschreitet, Horizonte erweitert. Sie werden damit ihre Fanbasis überraschen, herausfordern, spalten. Ein Risiko, das die Band absolut gewillt ist einzugehen. 'Versus' heißt das neue Werk, und AN EARLY CASCADE lassen nicht den geringsten Zweifel aufkommen, dass das hier so klingen muss, wie es klingt. Songs wie 'Lightning Speed' erinnern zwar noch an den bisherigen Output der Band, aber bereits der Opener 'Everything is wrong, everything is ok' macht klar, dass hier Großes passiert. Dass hier eine Band beschlossen hat, nicht mehr nach vorgegebenen Regeln zu spielen, sondern die Regeln zu MACHEN. Das hier sind keine Experimente, denn AN EARLY CASCADE wissen offensichtlich, was sie tun. Passagen lassen an Circa Survive denken, an Fear Before, Fall of Troy, ja, sogar an Muse. Aus den genannten Zutaten, und Dutzenden anderen, kochen AN EARLY CASCADE ihr eigenes Süppchen, irgendwo zwischen Core, Metal und Alternative Rock. Ein an Spielfreude und Ideenreichtum überbordendes Werk, das trotzdem erstaunlich kompakt, und stimmig daherkommt. Eines, an dem sich die Band in Zukunft messen lassen muss. Sie hätten es sich viel, viel einfacher machen können. Deftones did it with 'White Pony', Silverchair with 'Neon Ballroom'. For Radiohead, it was 'OK Computer': Sometimes, acts achieve their status as 'exceptional artists' only when they dare to leave well-worn paths. Break conventions. Cross borders. Broaden horizons. And thereby transcend their already extraordinary ouvre to a completely new level. AN EARLY CASCADE have recorded a new album. One that breaks conventions, crosses borders, broadens horizons. Titled 'Versus', it will divide their fanbase, surprise them, challenge them, overwhelm some. That is a risk the band is willing to take. AN EARLY CASCADE leave not a trace of doubt that this is exactly what they chose to become. Songs like 'Lightning Speed' are still reminiscent of their past output, but with the opening song 'Everything Is Wrong Everything Is Ok' alone, AEC lets the listener know that this band decided to no longer follow the rules but MAKE them. This is not a band 'experimenting' - they obviously know very well what they are doing. At times, 'Versus' intangibly resembles Circa Survive, Fear Before, Fall of Troy, even Muse. With these ingredients, and countless others, AN EARLY CASCADE make their own delicious thing, an energetic and eclectic album that somehow still manages to maintain focused and tight. No doubt: This is going to be the benchmark for all future AN EARLY CASCADE albums. They could have had it much, much easier.[cargo]
