Moody and angry at the same time: The new album „The Weak And The Wounded“ by the canadians from ALASKAN. Directly after the fi rst seconds you want to compare this with the ubiquitous Fall Of Efrafa. But it isn‘t that simple. Hard dark parts alternate with highly melodic parts. Repeatedly pace taken out - the skilled use of breaks / climaxes builds a unique suspense, so that the songs never sound dull. Built-in samples from the movie Session 9 ensure that the 4 songs appear linked to a story. „The Weak And The Wounded“ is a more than worthy successor to its predecessor Adversity: Woe.
