"Some people in the past have called the likeable Japanese guys in HEAVEN IN HER ARMS the younger brother of ENVY or a really good "rip-off" of ENVY's masterpieces "All The Footprints You've Ever Left." and "A Dead Sinking Story". Descriptions like "excellent Japanese screamo fused with ideas of progressive hardcore" and "massively bombastic emotional hardcore with extreme vocals" were established in the underground music scene as well. In 2010, after one full length, several demos, a lot of split releases + eps and hundreds of hours of songwriting work, they're now finally back with the 2nd full length named "PARASELENE". It's necessary to say that, if HEAVEN IN HER ARMS ever was the younger brother of ENVY, this brother now finally left the family to walk his own, independent, and autonomous path. With "PARASELENE", HEAVEN IN HER ARMS have created their own sophisticated soundscape and a new mixture of a massive wall of sound on the one hand, and intelligent, calm, and atmospheric parts on the other hand. That's surely something you've read in a lot of reviews before - but HEAVEN IN HER ARMS are one of the few bands which can initiate a new unique and mystical atmosphere if you even try to get into their music. Surely, the extreme vocals and the very long atmospheric parts in some songs are not something for every listener - but today, where terms like "hardcore", "screamo", or whatever have rather become promotion tools and definitely nothing but meaningless words, it's refreshing that there are some bands that don't try to become the next big thing - HEAVEN IN HER ARMS first and foremost play the music for themselves. Five of the eight songs are longer than six minutes - three even longer than nine minutes. So the main achievement of this record is definitely that HEAVEN IN HER ARMS have written a record with very very long songs which never bore you if you invest the will to understand their music and the meaning behind the lyrics. Especially in the times of downloading where it seems to be important to just get the big one hit of one band on your Mp3 player it's good to see that there are still people around who care about the full length format - and you can only understand this record if you regard it as a whole entity. Additionally, if you're patient and attentive enough, they reward you with two absolutely excellent masterpieces at the end of the album. The string and piano composition in the last song are an absolute highlight which centralizes the strength of the complete record.
Rezensionen
„Mit "Paraselene" haben Heaven In Her Arms ein Album geschrieben, das nervenzerreißende Spannung, bedrohliche Atmosphäre und überschäumende Intensität miteinander vereint.“ – FUZE (Album des Monats)
„Mit Paraselene entwickelt sich ein Album welches es so düster und intensiv wohl nur von den Labelkollegen Celeste hätte eingespielt werden können.“ – Legacy (14 / 15 Punkten)
„Ihr Mix aus depressiven Geschrei, spoken words und intensiver Musikkulisse bleibt meistens spannend und verliert nie seinen avandgardistischen Touch.“ – Dosenmusik (12 / 15 Punkten)
„"Paraselene“ ist ein fantastisch brutales Album, emotional gesehen, und nicht nur für Postcore- und Hardcore-Fans einen Hördurchlauf wert.“ – metal. de (CD-Tipp)
„Hier wird wahrlich nicht posiert, sondern Tacheles mit Kunst verwoben und letztlich auch angesprochen. Schön, dass eine Platte abseits konventioneller Bewertungsschemata als richtig aufregend empfohlen werden kann!“ – music-can. de
„Eindrucksvolle Mischung aus Technik und Gefühl!“ – The Pit (9 / 10 Punkten)
