Nameless Fear Daniel Bernardo from Portugal made this psychedelic album for psycho lovers. And even though songs sound similar, like the same bass lines and sounds, he did create a specific atmosphere, and it is a quite enjoyable album despite not so many variations. He has some kind of psychotic but not hysterical structure, and his wild energy fills you from beginning to end. He doesn't let you go, and that is one of the reasons I like this album; he doesn't pet you on the head and tells you,' you are comfortable now, my child,' but he rather smashes you with the first notes and doesn't let you go. Even though he is using samples from horror films, you don't have the feeling like you've been inside that film, but he is more using it funnily, like strong, driving kicks and some lullaby melodies spread all around to put you in a more diabolical mood. I like all tracks, but the best ones r: METAMORFOSE, ACID TRIP, BRAHMA, NATURAL BEHAVIOUR, NAMELESS FEAR...8/10 Only for dark lovers and the ones with a sense of humour and fun.
