Brian Ivory's Album Reviews
Fusing together many genres can sometimes lead to an unfocused mess stylisticly not the case here, Folk, Classical,Goth,Metal all blend beautifully sometimes within the same song with clean and effected death growls used to great effect throughout often at times for story telling and character changes within a song in this sprawling concept album.
While certain aspects of the concept may not be clear at first (the bands website actually has a section on mythology/backstory for each album, a great touch well done guys) this story is certainly interesting enough and well thought out and it's clear this aspect is taken very seriously by the band.
Vocal wise this brought to mind watching a play in a theatre with how the vocals were produced and arranged and gave me the feeling of watching an epic fantasy adventure come to life (think Warhammer the board game maybe 🤔)
All in all a very enjoyable album maybe a tad long but you don't make albums like this by the half do you?
3.5/5
