4.0 out of 5 stars
Still in the style of the past few albums..., September 4, 2006
This review is from: Hexaeon (Audio CD)
If you've heard the past albums, you'll know there are two distinct sides to Aeternus, the epic atmospheric black style... and the crushing riff powerhouse dark/deathmetal.
This is album #3 in this style and probably the best. All of the (newer) Aeternus trademarks are present...
Thunderous drums, Deep bellowing vocals (along side his haunting throaty bits, and his near chants), and of course RIFFS, massive riffing!!!
It's hard to compare any bands to Aeternus-except "Aeternus" though the closest would be if Immolation retained their style of Dawn of Possession instead of going the direction they went recently! There is also a few songs on here that are full of a few surprises-don't worry nothing to fancy!
The production is thick, dense and heavy as all hell, yet remains clear.
Highly recommended to those who aren't afraid to dig deeper than the basics!
