Second release for the Italian act, and the first one with the new line up. The first thing that we can say is that the band is moving in a very high quality standard, and their skills, either composing or performing, are very obvious. They are playing a strange mix of various styles, with Atmospheric metal being their base element, while their sound is enriched with a lot of other elements. The use of various vocal techniques, with Death, Black, clean male and clean female makes their music even more interesting. Now add a high theatrical atmosphere in their music and a lot of opera elements here and there, and you might understand for what we are talking about. There are enough ideas in their music, and most of them are used very wisely, and the result is an album with a high quality in every aspect. There is not a single boring moment, mostly because they are not monotonous but their music has a diversity that doesn't let anyone getting bored or thing that they repeat themselves. An excellent production, comes as a final addition and shows all the important elements and little details that their music needs to reach perfection. Definitely one of the most interesting albums we have heard.
