I agree that 20 years is somehow absurd, but yes, so far this is the best 2024 album, and by far. Epic Melodies, great
ambient, solos that will blow your heads up. Fields of snow is a good bridge from Time I to arrive to The Way of the fire,
which is 100% what you would expect from Wintersun, fast tempo, great melodies, just the vocals a bit low in the mix.
One with the shadows bring that slow tempo to give you breath to what is coming next. Ominous clouds brings you to an
absolute beast in the next song: Storm. Deadly executed riffs, nice arrangements and a good break and melodic part in
the end. Silver Leaves takes you to the most beautiful Japanish garden you will ever hear. The melody in the end with
the Finish vocals was just a perfect way to make me rewind the full album and hear it once and once again, till the end of
my days. |
