Battle Helm Rating
This one just dropped in on me. And since it was back in 2016 I last heard from them in the form of an interview I am really looking forward to this new album, that has been 3 years in the making. For some reason I am looking forward to hearing this one. This Ukraine band play a form of progressive metal that is of the more ethereal kind. The use of beauty and the beast vocals gives this one a depth. That together with the doomy feel of the music makes this a really interesting release. Just the fact that this is heavy and slow with that progressive touch makes me a believer. Through in some middle eastern touches and you got an album that grabbed me by my balls. Really cool stuff.
