Ancient Rites has
quite a few releases under their belt and a very
solid
presence in the
underground black metal scene (especially tours, etc.)
I was
expecting to
hear a pure black metal band if truth is told, but things
are
not like that
at all. It is true that some vocal lines (not all though)
are
being
delivered with venom and are quite harsh sounding, but apart from
that
I
guess that this band has decided to move on in a different
direction.
Thankfully the end result proves them right. They have managed to
come
up
with an interesting and well played record that has a good
recording
quality -the only turn off and it is quite a big one, being the
drum
machine
that they use- and comes with an interesting 20 page booklet.
Ancient
Rites
has come up with a mix of (mostly) power metal (not the la la
la la,
idiotic
power metal, the one that has balls in it)-epic -black that
should
satisfy
most of the real
headbangers.
