When reviewing the debut album
"Planeshift" from the Russians of Rakoth I generously hailed the band as one
of the most innovative bands ever and I still hold on to that opinion after
having listened to their follow-up "Jabberworks". This time they have also
enlisted the "Russian Grotesque Live Orchestra" which makes this album more
powerful and varied than their previous one. The band has developed in every
single aspect - the unique vocals are stronger, the song structures are more
complex, the production is better etc. The Rakoth sound is still the same
though and with their unique blend of black metal, folk music and orchestral
music they have once again managed to entrance me with their flutes and
beautiful tales. The true innovators are not always found where expected and
Rakoth is one of the most exciting newcomers on the metal scene at the moment.
They have recently been picked up by Earache's new sublabel Elitist Records
and there is a lot more amazing ground-breaking music to come in the 21st
century, that's one thing we can take for granted. This is music, this is
beautiful, this is true art.
