 It is especially in the verses sung by Creature that a disillusioned conception of a world oppressed by racial conflicts and the logic of economic power is summarized.

 Between 1986 and 1988 [Mephisto Walz] managed to give us a spark of honest and creative gothic adrenaline.

Mephisto Walz's self-titled debut EP emerged in the late 1980s, capturing the spirit of dark-wave with aggressive, guitar-driven soundscapes and bleak, socially conscious lyrics. Formed by former Christian Death members, the band maintained a familiar gothic style yet delivered their own artistic identity. Their use of tribal rhythms and distorted guitars offered a unique sonic texture that appealed strongly to dark music fans. Though not revolutionary, the EP remains an honest and creative contribution to gothic music. Dive into Mephisto Walz's gothic debut and experience the raw, dark energy of 80s dark-wave now!

 The album sounds ominously like the soundtrack of a memory of an event still mysterious and unresolved to this day.

 A record at times prolix, at times fascinating, that adds nothing new to Claudio Dondo’s creative journey and probably cuts space for De Maria.

Tunguska’s self-titled album is a thoughtful new-age and synth-pop project inspired by the enigmatic 1908 Siberian explosion. Created by Genoese musicians Claudio Dondo and Massimo De Maria, it weaves atmospheric soundscapes reflecting the event's mystery and potential devastation.

 "The choice of a runic aura surrounding the project stopped at the titles and iconographies without truly declaring itself in the (rare) lyrics and the sound setting."

 "The melancholic 'Tears in the snow' has become a small classic of Runes Order... a piece rarely encountered in later albums."

Runes Order's The Land of Silence is an atmospheric electronic-ambient album with industrial and synthpop influences. While it features notable tracks like 'Tears in the Snow,' the album lacks originality and development in its compositions. The project’s use of cultural motifs doesn't fully translate to the music, resulting in a repetitive experience. Despite a modest following, critical praise seems overstated given the album's limitations. Discover the atmospheric world of Runes Order’s The Land of Silence and decide if its haunting synth layers speak to you.

 "The music of Dream Theater sounds very self-serving to me, very contrived to impress and please."

 "Octavarium is yet another chapter of a discography that started off pretty well but then failed to evolve."

Despite recognizing the band's musical skill, the reviewer finds the album self-serving and filled with clichéd, pretentious lyrics. The album is seen as a step back from the band's early promise and a reflection of stagnation in their discography. Discover the full review and decide if Dream Theater's Octavarium resonates with your prog rock tastes.
