REVIEW: ALASTOR SANGUINARY EMBRYO - ETERNAL TEARS THROUGH ASMODEO´S BLACKENED FLAMES

 

ALASTOR SANGUINARY EMBRIO - ETERNAL TEARS THROUGH ASMODEO´S BLACKENED FLAMES (Independent, 1999):

Track List: 1- Blackart Masterpiece, 2- Through Asmodeo´s Blackened Flames, 3- The Four In Unisono, 4- Eternal Tears, 5- The Universe´s Pillars Fall

In this new work from Alastor Sanguinary Embrio from Costa Rica, they show a lot of improvements when compared to "The Howling Creatures of Night". Opening like on tthat demo with an acoustic guitar intro ( this is in the vein of some works from Fernando Sor). The band shows here that the two years that separate this new work from the prior one were not spent in vane. They show that they have worked a lot to achieve better songs with better sound (the keyboards here are fundamental for the new tracks and they add interesting phrases to them). The music is still black metal but it has become more complex and they have become more subtle in certain arrangements. Well, since two years have passed since this CD I hope that they will release something new one of this days. Favorite tracks:" The Four in Unisono", "Eternal Tears". Contact: www.zonaunderground.com
