Crystalium - Doxa O RevelatioN
Reviewed by Eddie Risdal in 6/22/2008
I won't drag out this review. Just like Black Dementia, which I reviewed not too long ago, this is a French black/extreme metal band, "surprisingly" also released on the same label.
The songs and in particular the total playing time of more than an hour is just too much for such heavily digested music. Most songs comes and leaves in blastbeats or rapid double bass drums, courtecy of Altar.ZK6 (actually all four band members have lame pseudonuyms), who also does his service in the to me more known band Arkhon Infaustus.
The track titles tells me that the lyrics are in French, but that doesn't matter much in either a positive or negative way. One thing I don't get is why both the intro and one of the regular songs bear the album title. To sum it all up this never ends up being bad, just uninteresting... There are probably lot of other people who enjoys this much more than me though.
