REVIEW: Nattvind - Subuniverses Darkwind Records, 2002
8/10
Nattvind - Subuniverses - cover art Nattvind released one demo and two full length albums under their old moniker Nattvindens Gråt but now they have relocated from Finland to Germany and are back with a brand new line-up, a brand new name and a brand new album. As many of you probably know this band used to feature Sami Vänskä and Tuomas Holopainen, both now with the critically acclaimed Nightwish. "Subuniverses" does not have much to do with Nightwish at all though. This album is based more on classic rock'n'roll that will surely appeal to those of you who still love the old legends such as Deep Purple, Rainbow and all the other shining stars of the 70's. Nostalgia will be felt in the hearts of many people who listen to this album and I am confident enough on the quality of this release to warrant a warm recommendation to all fans of classic hard rock / metal. Nattvind is a band who have a more modern gothic rock sound though but they still perform wonderful music full of passion and dressed in a unique warm melancholic atmosphere. You can draw one parallel to Nightwish after all and that is that both Nattvind and Nightwish have a very strong sense of melody and harmony which results in very well conceived song structures and a relaxed musical flow throughout the whole album. Stand-out tracks: "Planets Falling", "Thirteen Moons", "Different Realities".
