destiny - the tracy chapter
finally done :) this is the last piece in the puzzle of my early european-hardcore-scene experiences that made me love the whole hardcore thing! with these releases it's usually not a question of money but a question of availability. this record came out in 2004 (i was buying cd's at the time) with a run of 500 copies and not one copy was to be found on the net. no distro, no label not even ebay. so it was wait and see. a challenge for my not very strong patience. but then one day it shown up on the bay and after one hard week of waiting for the auction to end i won it for a nice price.
the music is great plus a lovely sound by tue madsen's antfarm studio! think of a german version of early poison the well. they sound pretty similar but as i heard the destiny stuff first i didn't get into that copycat feeling :) as a constant reader you maybe know my repulsion for clean vocals. yeah, what should i say... destiny has them and i goddamn like it. a bit contradictory but that's life :) i thought that is because the music came to me in an early stage but that's not the reason - i didn't like clean singing back in the day too. i think with this record destiny just managed to make these vocals sound proper in the context of their music.
