Not sure know how to characterize this album, but I know I really like it. I would describe it as spacious and
improvised-sounding desert-rock, with a middle-eastern influence, incorporating something of the then-
burgeoning Berliner Schule electronic scene, and all of it somehow ends up channeling the atmosphere of an
Arabian desert. I suppose the ill-defined label of Krautrock is apt enough, but that tells you very little, really it just
needs to be experienced to be understood at all - not because it is complex or exceedingly strange, just because
this one is hard to pin down. |

| This band has done it again! I was really impressed by last year's album and when I heard there would be something out this year too I jumped on it. Took a bit longer than the previous one to hit me properly but once it did I was hooked. The production on this thing is really cool too, gives it this kind of buzz to the riffs, and a really desolate atmosphere to their brand of death-y black metal. Not your typical "blackened death metal" though, this is like all the things you love about BM paired with a more throaty vocal performance and punchier, more distinct instrumentation. Basically it rules. |

Wow, this album exceeded my modest expectations and delivers some of Eluveities strongest material in a decade. All of
the singles were great, but Premonitions early stood out as a clear winner, and remains a high-point here with its
ripping solo and professional display of Eluveities tested formula. Elsewhere, Fabiennes vocal talent is taken full
advantage of, as she features prominently throughout the runtime. Chrigels growl, though never far away, plays more of
a supporting role. Id have to tentatively assert that the band has found their most organic and natural balance between
the folk-y compositional side, and their gravelly metallic underpinnings. At a breezy 40 minutes, Anv is also a digestible
and approachable package, with interludes that are exciting and interesting, particularly the likes of Memories of
Innocence, rather than serving any filler-function or adding to the fatigue of a padded run-time. Eluveitie basically feel
as strong as ever, and I for one am happy to see what appears to be the most earnest and dedicated folk-metal act
continue to succeed. |

Its single-mindedness comes at the price of much latitude in creativity, meaning this release does little to stand out from the pack of similar-sounding projects. That said, its executed about as well as a straightforward kick to the face can be. 3.7/5. |

| This live DVD is a lot of fun. Before watching it I was a little apprehensive about the editing style from the "trailer", but I actually really enjoyed the post-production meddling. Aside from some seldom moments of quick cuts that I'm not that into, the CGI was unexpectedly really cool, the track title graphics and stylistic additions enhanced the experience, and overall the camera angle choice was excellent. Plenty of live DVD try to make the experience as unwatchable as possible by choosing zany angles and machine-gun cuts but this was one of the most enjoyable live albums to watch and listen to. The track list was excellent, the band are on point the whole time and never let up with the on-stage excitement. Loved the venue and way it was used too, not only for the expectedly awesome pyro-technics but also the additional antics. Highly recommend for any fan of the band, I think this tops In Amerika too. |

I am always happy to hear another BOC album, and though I honestly would have preferred to hear a modern
follow-up to 2020s fantastic The Symbol Remains, this is an interesting time-capsule with a few genuine
highlights. Since this is just a collection of unreleased material from their middle period, Ghost Stories ends up
sounding like the missing link between Mirrors and Cultosaurus Erectus, and probably stacks up slightly better
than the former. The cover songs scattered throughout are live show staples and vary in quality. Kick Out The
Jams sounds pretty good, but We Gotta Get Out Of This Place and If I Fell, though fairly inoffensive, are probably
the least interesting tracks here. On the other hand, So Supernatural, Don’t Come Running To Me, and The Only
Thing are quite excellent, and everything else is pretty good. This is far from essential listening, but I think fans of
the band generally will be quite satisfied even with what the band left on the cutting room floor, and pleasantly
surprised to get a classic sounding BOC album in 2024. |

| Wanted to like this more than I did. Still a great effort and a fair amount of cool riffs/lead but nowhere near the quality of Halo. More focus on a deeper, crunchier sound doesn't lend itself to COB, who are way better off with the trebly riff fest. Bass is nice and strong here though, and vocals + percussion are done pretty well too. |

| I think I prefer the material here to the debut, mostly for this demo's inferior recording quality which lends the tracks a good deal of charm and also better represents the music, at least in my view. The live bonus tracks are pretty garbage though, I'm not counting them in my rating but be forewarned they're pretty flat and sound aimless, maybe as a result of how they were captured, plus they take up a lot of the overall runtime and draw the whole expereience out. The demo itself is very good, just avoid the live numbers and you'll enjoy yourself. |

approach with glitchy electronic effects, into melodic metalcore-like choruses more familiar to the Aussie metal scene.
The production sounds great and these guys are doing enough to stand out from the crowd, good luck to em. |

| An intriguing winter synth experience that requires a little more volume than usual to properly shine. Freeze creates a subtle atmosphere with a slightly haunting feeling, built on a foundation of swishy synths and dull percussion. The album cover is a perfect representation of the isolating music within, which is neither threatening nor comforting. My one suggestion if you choose to give this a listen is to crank it up a little given the low mixing present, my first few tries left me wanting, and even though I kept returning it took some time before I figured out that the sound just needed some more power, then you start to notice some of the details that are obscured. There are more complete and enveloping winter synth albums out there but for a taste you can't go wrong with Freeze. |

| The first track is absolutely awesome. The long, main track is really good too but dies down a little bit in the middle section. Ndra are just a really impressive band all round and they certianly have a unique approach to black metal with their cutting high-pitch tremolos amongst a more restrained, dark atmosphere of drum clanging and anguished screams. |

| A genuinely excellent hard/stoner rock album from Eddi Pickard of Infant Annihilator and Black Tongue fame. Seeing what he's capable of from a technical standpoint in IA, it's hard to believe how well he can tone it down here and offer such a melody-driven and catchy experience. Not only are his guitar playing and songwriting skills rmade immediately evident, but Eddi's got a really good voice for this style. The album's a little on the long side and could lose a track or two, but I'm equal parts pleasantly surprised and excited by how great this turned out. |

| At first glance this album is overlong and a little underwhelming, but in time you begin to appreciate the delicacy with which this demo operates. It won't be for everyone and as my rating suggests I still have some issues with it, however there's a lot to appreciate here for those that enjoy subtle atmospheric black metal with a touch of dungeon synth. |

Interesting style of black metal, unique sound and production. Some of the riffs are really cool and the
songwriting overall is a fresh (for the time) take on black metal. It suffers a bit from sounding homogenous,
production wise anyway, but on the whole it's quite enjoyable mid to relatively slow paced BM. |

| rThis is really cool. The riffs are quite interesting because while they're atmostpheric, they're also catchy enough to keep you interested. The vocals are a bit dull but not bad, just nothing special, and otherwise this is a great performance with engaging songwriting and proficient musicians. |
