First off these words are by no means coming from a literary genious who got A's in english class every year, so please pay no attention to the sentence structures, or misuse of commas or other types of improper punctuation. lol anyway here's my personal review of Silent Horror's EP, Patterns on Devils Mind Records.

Back with a bang is right! This EP is nasty!! Jigar / Silent Horror is an animal for sure. These 3 tracks capture the intensity and insanity of a true psychonaut!! Thank you very much for this release!
Tracklist:
01 Patterns
http://www.devilsmindrecords.org/files/releases/dvsmcds001/01.mp3
This track really sets the tone for the entire EP. With a somewhat serious vibe, the initial though is that this composition is going to be very deep and challenging. The bassline has a very nice heavy groove to it with atmospheres as heady and psychedelic as the great outdoors, and could even be played earlier in the night...I think anyway, but then again i'm not 100% on these things for i'm a man of not many formulas lol. This is an introspective gem for sure. Jigar's production quality is amazing.
02 Obscure

Maaaaaan!! This track is NASTY. Super super heavy. I actually play this in most of my sets currently, I highly recommend you do the same! I mean its trickery at its finest. The first 1:15 minutes or so is kinda laid back, could take you in any direction really...then BLAAAAAM full on neurological assault! The assault evolvs into a total MONSTER of a tune. It reminds me of a bad dream really, one that you can fully wake up from. Some wacked out lucid reality. I love it. Dance floor smasher. It'll put you in that special place. A++
03 Traumatic
http://www.devilsmindrecords.org/files/releases/dvsmcds001/03.mp3
The name says it all really. It is over the TOP wicked. This is my personal favorite of the EP. The leads are super intense, sounds like a space invasion, with a driving bassline meant for peak hour.

Summary
Silent Horror, in my eyes, has really captured the essence of Devils Mind Records. I see nothing but bright dark wonderful things in this mans future. I can't wait to hear more from him, and the rest of the animals at Devils Mind Records.

My review from isratrance:
Silent Horror returns with this three track EP, released on Devils Mind Records, just as his official debut album Nemesis. Silent Horror is Jigar Shah, an Indian composer of dark nighttime psytrance. After releasing lots of tracks on various compilations and labels, he decided to release his debut on Devils Mind Records, which managed to surprise because of its tight production and dark tracks. Now he continues in that vein with this three track EP. The tracks on offer here are fairly wild and especially Traumatic (T3) is pure dark psytrance, with lots of dark atmospheric sounds and acid lines flying all over the place. Combine this all with a pounding kick and heavy bass lines, and you’re about there. It’s only 21 minutes long though, but this is an EP after all. It’s just that after the third track, which is the best in my opinion, you’re left wanting more and more from this. So then it just has to go on repeat... There is also a concept behind this being released on a single CD. Most labels nowadays go for digital releases, especially when it comes to EPs. Devils Mind Records, however, wants to keep the CD alive, so they released this on CD. It’s also available in limited quantities, so if you want your copy you should be fast. So, the music is great on this one, let’s have a quick talk about the rest. The artwork is also great, nice and colorful with a forest impression. The CD itself looks nice in the same way. Mastering is top notch as well and it was done by Colin from O.O.O.D. fame./
Recomendation: All in all, this is a nice package. It reflects what Silent Horror is all about these days and these tracks are all strong. There are no downers here, and if you like this style you’d be a fool to miss out on a track like Traumatic, which is one of the finer examples of this genre. And as I said, this is also a limited edition and a collector's item, so grab it while you have a chance!
