The first time I heard about this young metal band from Spain I thought… “Phoenix Rising/Fire & Ashes, double band name... something new”, but the true innovation here is that the band has recorded two different versions of the album; for the international market the album is delivered in English while the Spanish and Latin-American market has its own version in Spanish language.
The album starts with the intro Tenebris Revelantur which has a dark atmosphere at the beginning with a monk singing, but after a minute the song turns into a piece that would also fit well with the soundtrack of Pirates of the Caribbean. Agoraphobia is the first "real" piece of the album and it is definitely an epic song. The song starts with choral singing while the double bass thunders fat and Miguel González shows that he claims the right to place behind the microphone. A consistently successful track. The Chosen One is a very guitar-heavy piece and Daniel Martinez pulls out all the stops. Last Eternal Night offers us an extraordinary instrumental work again with sweeping melodies and a great chorus. For me, this is the best track of the album along with Agoraphobia.
Fury and Rage is a solid song without imposing largely into the overall work. A violin guides us throughout the track, but the song doesn’t lack strength thanks to the good guitar work. My Love Still Remains is the only ballad of the album and it is completely convincing. Miguel brings a feeling over here really well ... See More
