Review:
Cult Of Luna is out w another melodic album. After a short album-intro they hit us w a rly good n driven opening song, I: The Weapon. Third song is a monster that clocks in on allmost 20 minutes. The rest of the albums consists, except from a couple of short tracks, mostly of songs ranging from 6 to 10 minutes. This is not an album that is easily digested, but needs time get in to.
I think the sound is maybe a bit more dirty from their previous effort, Eternal Kingdom. U can hear they have put lotsa works into this one, truly a great release from the swedes.
Highly Recommended
