“Rise Radiant” is definitely more than the obvious result of what the guys of Caligula’s Horse have been creating for the past decade. It is a conclusion and a marking point on their careers. With solid songwriting, super crystal clear sound production, it is poetically brilliant and combined with its powerfully crushing energy and moving melodies, delivers what surely is for me one of the best albums of the year! 5/5 ★
“Leaves Of Yesteryear” shines as the comeback of the year, beautiful and diverse, complex and catchy, and showing us that the Norwegians still have what it takes to stand out in the scene.
Get ready for a relentless display of blast beats, screams and dirty overdriven guitars delivered at ridiculously fast tempos. Eciton’s “Suspension of Disbelief” presents a raw, stripped down form of technical death metal that leaves no room to draw your breath.
“City Burials” is like a Katatonia chocolate box, you never know what you get with the next song. And while some might call it incoherent, for me it is exciting and daring, just what we have come to expect from the spearhead of dark progressive metal.
Volkor X managed to do justice to its predecessor by landing a fatal blow, which appears to be one of the best electronic albums of these past years.
