I don't really care for metal, so I almost signed off in thew first few seconds of Balrog Boogie... then the magic hit.
Powerful, demanding, almost loud enough to be raucous, and paired with a voice that probably has classical training, the music continued to play and I felt myself flattened against the wall.
Despite the booming beats, the music is there and well-composed, and that vocalist makes everything right. I would love to hear a tune from them where the instruments followed that voice, and the voice drove the melody.
Inside all of that is an incredible mix of genres and few of them are among my favorites, yet this group has earned a permanent place in my preferences.
Formidable! Amazing! Изумительно! Ball! Farligt!
I think I will listen to this to learn better how to pronounce French. I need a better knowledge of the language.
I am impressed with the professional level of the production. I am not sure that more studio resources would help these musicians as they cruise close to perfection.
For all who participated in making this album, Formidable!
