Here is an interview which we all want to know a little
more about this great album !
Thank you very much ! My friend for this opportunity!
¿Now Cinthya stay as alignment Mystica Girls? ¿What
is the future of the band ? ¿What are your plans ?
I'm on guitar , Mon Laferte on vocals, Yolanda on
drums and Kathy Whitewolf on bass. We are very excited because this new album (
Gates of Hell ) we plan to do an international tour. We are still in talks, but
Europe and the U.S. we are strong possibilities. Our intention with this album
is to reach new markets, but also to surprise and pamper our dear and loyal fans
. We made a great effort to provide a high quality product and is the result of
years of work and experience .
¿Tell us,
how the new album came up, How do I get the idea?
Make a good album is a lot longer than most people
imagine process. As you say , it all starts with small ideas that can add up
and grow, like cells that are forming a baby. We wanted to do something that
had a profound message that was both dark and fun , and it was expressed with
the greatest musical quality. A first idea that you were adding many other ,
sometimes surprising and almost "magic " ways. Indeed the ideas
" come " as if they were sent from some higher place . It is a
beautiful process.
¿What's
behind the name of the new album, the name means ?
The fundamental idea of this album is to play with people
's fears . When someone decides to face his fears and conquer , then you can
turn them into something fun. Open the gates of hell ( Gates of Hell ) is a
good way to represent it , let the fears we all have released. It is true that
in doing so, we run the risk of being destroyed by them, but if we are brave
and learn to use them, then, these fears become our greatest strength.
¿What is the theme
of the album, is continuous ? Metaphorical ? ? Need more power ? Or heavier?
In fact it is all the things you mention. Start with
opening the gates of hell and ends with a celebration where supposedly scariest
beings gather to have fun and be happy, and invite you to celebrate with them
as long as you are polite and behave . Definitely continuous and metaphorical.
As for music, has many elements of Speed, Thrash, Power, Neoclassical and even
Gothic. It is a heavy but very digestible disc. Different emotions are
represented by different sounds , it is important that everyone gets along very
well with them , haha.
¿Will guest
artists ? or special collaboration?
None. The disk 100 % MysticaGirls .
¿Tell us, who is
currently Mystica Girls ? with the output of various talents . Kathy
Whitewolf is the newest member of the group . He arrived just in time to record
the new album. Mon Laferte and Yolanda have almost 3 years of being part of the
band. And as I said before I am questioning the guitarist.
¿Will you write
songs or who wrote those ?
Most of the songs are mine. When someone else was involved
in some of them is specified on the disc. The same happens if bonus tracks as
"Bonus Track" not of my authorship included in any edition.
¿Will a video clip
of some of the songs ?
Definitely ! You can be sure of that. Now we are also
developing , but as with the disc , we give them a high quality product , so we
're not rushing .
Thank you my
friend ! Indeed for this opportunity! The last words are yours !
Many thanks to you and all the people who follow
and support us ! Rest assured that all we want and appreciate , because thanks
to you we have the opportunity to share the work we do with so much love and
passion, and that is our life. We will see that they can be very happy in our
live .
Now here is the review of this album , see each track!

Gates of Hell
To be Open :
Dark Entry, sounds of the underworld march to hell, good
very atmospheric entry , reminds us of an apocalypse full of excitement and
full of Rock Metal which is a good overture
The Gates of Hell
;
Heavy tackle , and fast ! Excellent ! Reminds me of the
old style touch thrashy , Mon Laferte voice is grave with a dark , slow and
full of dark emotion with a touch goth tessitura , but what I like is the fast
pace of the melody, not lost pitch or speed, there is little use of voice , a
good song with a good Metalero old school style !
The Boogie Biker :
What entrance, a heavy crude and heavy rock guitars to
its maximum , strong and relentless , slower and with very good guitar solos ,
another atmospheric song with a very different style battery.
No more :
Sounds heavy , similar to previous songs here noticed
more rocker style! With a higher voice ! And wild! This song is heavy with a
strong rocker style of those great years , again using the little voice is
unlike music, which makes use of guitars and drums.
The Spirit has won
:
Excellent entry Speed and more power! The voice enters
in time with the song! Sharper and coupled to the rhythm of the track , one
good guitar which is a clear sign of management tools very good , although the
last part is somewhat abrupt enough time voice input and output , and ends with
track more elaborate vocal range in this song !
Tiny Blue Dot :
Check regularly with a refrain between guitars and drums
, lightweight studs between the speech input , the same rate between the voice
and the song , the tone of the voice is the same scale, more rhythmic, more
emotion, more notorious rocker style , good end some time with voice and sound.
The Conquest:
Excellent entry ! Reminds me of a classic style between
Death and Thrash , speed is very noticeable with great handling guitars! The
voice input will time with the same rhythm and harmony , sharp and wild, I like
the style of the song, fly in the middle of the disc that speed ! And that
piercing cry is beautiful! I only lacked this a guttural song really would be a
rich classic Death !
Sweet picking:
Entry great slower background guitar and drums , has a sound
similar to speed metal of the old masters , speed regulate other atmospheric
song which you can hear
Why should we need:
Check slower , a notorious example of good voice Mon
Laferte , here is more noticeable than in previous songs , which gives it an
air of classic Rock with a clearer and emotional frame of mind, this is the
quietest song on the album ! Which does not break with the concept of the album
or lyric , it seems good adaptation .
New Awakening:
Classical entrance with a very notorious Power! Handling
excellent guitars , rhythm chords another very atmospheric song.
Spooky cookie:
Check with thunderous rock glory , the voice is harsh and
cruel! Heavy doom with a touch of style and voice, regular rhythm , the close
of the album is good ! Just the thrill of going down to low .
I liked the album! It really is very different from
before , we can hear the evolution of the sound, it really is a heavy disc with
a purely Rocker / Thrash / Power / Goth a pleasant and unique combination , the
voice does not lose strength, his vocal range is contante and that you gives a
personal touch to the disc remains level consistent with a rhythmic sound of
each song is dark and raw! Only thing is quite strong and hard as you go up the
lower disc and emotion, it is continuous but between intercepted by atmospheric
songs.
Recommend with ample success , really . Congratulations
on the use of instruments and voice Mon Laferte , that voice! I reiterate .
My score : 9/10
The cover art of the album shows a mixture of styles
found !
