Necromantical Screams
Now,there are ten tracks on this album,as you can see and the first time you hear them you won't catch
'em and let me tell you ,mate, it will be a long time before you like 'em........but like 'em you will if you are a true metal
lover and have some patience.The songs are extremely heavy .........look at those riffs ,man...they hit you on the head like
a ten-ton hammer.......they keep changing the tempo...it takes a lot of time to get used to them and really enjoy the heavy
riffs and tempo changes.....all songs have the explosive parts were the drummer starts drumming like a maniac and those heads
start to bang faster and then it reverts to an excruciatingly slow pace...oh i love it.......
The Gothic influence is obvious...specially on the one minute opener..and quite possibly my fave cut
on this album,"Necromantial Screams".....hear that riff man...hear it!Another helluva song is "Circle of Tyrants"....maybe
heavier than "..... Screams....".Another thing you will notice is the wailing female vocals.....bands
doing that have created a seperate genre for themselves..like Nightwish for example......(check out their hit "Nemo" if you
want)
Very deep,very heavy,very dark....you should download this if you don't buy this......like I did.......
