A band with a name like this I connect with death or black metal but it's far far from that. This band from Holland plays a kind of 70's psychedelic progressive rock/hardrock that often sounds like the early progressive times of Blue Öyster Cult with a weird twitch and space-like sound. Unfortulately the production and sound is a bit "light". It could have been better with more power and heaviness. Also it's impossible read anything in the CD-booklet due to the way its been written. What's the point?
1)The time of no time (-) Intro.
2)Evermore (6,5)
3)I'll be your ghost (7,5)
4)The yonder beckons (7,0)
5)House of ten thousand voices (6,0) Difficult and complex song.
6)Christ or cocaine (7,5) Very melodic in 70's style rock/hardrock.
7)Queen of my burning heart (7,0)
8)Angel's prayer (7,5) Beautiful more laid back song.
9)Feeding the fire with tears and blood (5,5) Too chaotic.
10)Rake your nails across the firmament (4,0)
11)The anti-kosmik magick (5,5) 11 minutes which just continues as the rest of the album. They could have made something special out of this one instead.
Score: 6,40
