This review is from: Halcyon (Audio CD)

This is a mini album made up mostly of songs from their first studio album Lamentations and one extra track Manowar's Gloves of Metal,which for me made the price of this release seem more than worth it.Solstice actually manages to show up Manowar's original by downtuning and throwing in some amazing solos,hectic rhythms and interesting breaks,not to mention the double bass drumming we've all come to be familiar with from other doom classics.This album brings to mind Black Sabbath and at times Candlemass to create an interesting layer of past influence and the beginnings of technical proficiency.Slow and lumbering,Halcyon should please any fan of doom metal or classic black metal that cares to take a chance on something new.
