5.0 out of 5 stars "Epic Music" indeed, June 24, 2010

If you know E.S. Posthumus, then you have little business reading this. If you so much as think you'd like this album, go for it; it's highly unlikely you'll be disappointed.
For those who have yet to see the light, the samples represent the music well.

That said, I discovered E.S. Posthumus through Pandora, and grew to love every moment of their music. Most of my other music is stuff like the Halo soundtracks and film scores, so if you're into those, this is a sure-buy. I would describe this as "Epic Music," like the type of music I like to claim I enjoy.

Tracks range from sort of techno-y (Antissa, Tikal) to full out, powerful choral/instrumental (Harappa, Ebla). Overall, though, each track contains a variety of instruments, from strings and brass to electronic instruments; Nineveh may well be the most integrated of them all. Some are a bit "heavier" than others (Menouthis, Pompeii), and there are a few "easygoing" tracks as well (Ulaid, Isfahan, Cuzco).

All in all, if you're interested in epic-sounding music that incorporates swathes of instruments, this is the album (and artist!) for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible, Some of the Best Music I've Heard, June 23, 2010

I purchased this album back in September 09, this was one of the best music buys I've ever made. Every track on this album is exquisite, the tracks range greatly in terms of mood. Some will get your blood pumping and others can be absolutely relaxing. (Cuzco being the perfect example) Simply put, E.S. Posthumus is one of the best musical groups I've heard. From someone who was becoming bored with music, this album rejuvenated my taste and love for the music industry. I strongly recommend this for anyone who just loves amazing music.

Not a bad track in the whole lot.....

I'm a total E.S. Posthumus newbie, just stumbled upon this album while looking through albums and I'm SO glad I bought this. If you like "Enigma"-esque type of music, choirs and electronica beats intertwined, you have GOT to pick this up. Really fantastic and surprisingly relaxing.
