Another nice release from the brothers Xy and Vorph of
Samael. "Eternal" is a continuation from the "Exodus" MCD that Samael
released in 1998 and the sound is very much the same - heavy guitars with lots
of keyboard added. Sometimes they manage to do this in a very nice way but
unfortunately there is a little bit too much keyboard at some places that make
the music sound noisy and unclear. If you compare the vocals to those on
"Exodus" there are now more spoken voices and less growling. Perhaps this
has something to do with Samael transforming from an originally rather satanic
band to one more focused on general astral spirituality and questions about
life itself. As a whole this is a rather complex Samael album - influenced by
death metal, techno, rock music and also classical music - and mostly it
sounds pretty nice although it's not one of my favourite albums. The album
was recorded at Montain Studio, recorded, engineered and mixed by David
Richards and Kris Fredriksson.
