Opera IX -
Maleventum
The first thing you
notice about his CD is its presentation: nice cover, digipack format.
This was not a big surprise to me as it came as a (logical?)
continuation to their previous album. However, when it comes to music,
things did change a little bit. First of all, we no longer have
Cadaveria on vocals and one could easily notice the difference; she
had quite an original way of singing black metal. As for the songs, they
sound ok, only that I don’t think they have the same intensity and power
as they did on The Black Opera. But that doesn’t make it a weak
album. On the contrary, I think this is a band we should keep and eye
on. |
