Gods And Angels


Thanks again to João for sending his new EP!
Last april I've posted the demo by the Brazilian one man band Hell Reaper, formed by João Ricardo Pacheco. This is the EP Gods And Angels. With this EP João is more focused on Hard Rock and Heavy Metal and less on Stoner Rock and Grunge.
João did again a great job with the drumming machine. The Gods And Angels EP is pretty short, just as the songs. In my opinion these could have been more longer. In overall, Gods And Angels is a decent EP, but in the future, the songs could be slightly more developed. João and I are very interested in your opinion, so tell us what you think by leaving a comment. Enjoy!

One Man From Brazil.


Thanks to João for sending me his demo!
Hell Reaper is a one-man project by João Ricardo Pacheco. This guy combines on his demo Stoner Rock with Grunge, NWOBHM and Hard Rock. I must point out that João did a nice job with drumming machine. He programmed that device very nice. I love these rhythms. The only criticism is that with this device it is hard to end the songs properly, or it end's abruptly or it ands with a fade-out. So it seems that the songs are not really off! But don't let that bother you!
Hell Reaper is according MySpace influenced by the following: Motorhead, Tank, Monster Magnet, Kyuss, Black Sabbath, Alice in Chains, Alice Cooper, King Diamond and Chrome Division. It's a lot of different styles, but the result is great. The voice of João reminds me a bit of Wino. The Instruments sounds great. So give this thing a listen. Enjoy!

Former guitarrist of brazilian metal bands since 1987 and current guitarrist in Metal band Mother Zombie, João Pacheco started writing and recording songs in his home studio with Rock and Roll, Grunge and Stoner Rock influences in 2008. Influenced by Motorhead, Tank, Monster Magnet, Kyuss, Black Sabbath, Alice in Chains and Chome Division, and with the great help of his Mother Zombie mate Rodrigo Cândido on bass, the project received the name of Hell Reaper and a 05 songs self-titled EP is avaliable.
