Core-a-core

Uhm... dear Fidia, I can't agree with you. I really don't see the need for so many bands to harden up so much during this time, and surely Moonspell has succumbed to the temptation. But at least they offer a nice hard work, which takes me back to the band's early days, before Wolfheart. And I like it. I don't think the comparison with Katatonia is fair: the Nordics have that tendency to refine themselves in their very nature... they spectacularly update sound and lyrics. We Mediterraneans are undoubtedly wilder and more tied to traditions. I expected this return to rawness from the Portuguese. Of course, it's not thrilling, but I have missed a well-produced dark album like this. Naively, I had hoped for something good from Cradle Of Filth (heresy!!!) who have also lost all those baroque elements, but they turned out a real mess. Here instead there's music of a high level, from people who at least deserve a passing grade for how they sound. Regards!

Really impressive what you wrote, absolutely not trivial nor filled with useless reflections. Congratulations. However, the album deserves a 4 for me. Very interesting and, as you rightly point out, forgotten, but there's too much dark in this sound and honestly, I would have preferred a different kind of despair. Certain arpeggios remind me of an English band that does absolutely interesting death: Akercocke. By the way, listen to them; it's really worth it. Returning to this album, it is still very, very strong in some parts, while in others it slightly loses its tone.

The first half-steamed album for the FT. The production of the album is too good, which, in my opinion, takes away at least 50% of the beauty from a genre like depressive.

I find little that's contrived in a band that does depression the right way and churns out great album after great album.

Masterpiece.

I give a solid 5 to a band that has never lost their ideas and has never served up the same old stuff in a thousand variations. These guys are geniuses.

Very clear, I really liked the review and especially I think this is the video for me, thank you very much for the suggestion. And well done again.

To the tepes I understood, you have to be 18 years old and you're out of your mind :D

mmm, so you just want to receive positive comments? I mean, do you think you can get away with rhetorical responses to comments as well? It’s not like there’s a competition for who keeps the best average, it seems to me. Anyway, it's only logical that I wouldn't read your reviews anymore. Do as you please. Adios.

Thank you for the suggestion, Fallen. Strangely, these slip my mind. I'll take care of it right away.
