REVIEW: BELINUS - BATTLECHANTS

 


BELINUS - BATTLECHANTS (Independent, 2001)


Produced by Belinus

Recorded at B.P.M. Studios Cork

Artwork by HuGarDarn


Tracks: 1- Croi Dorcha na Coille; 2- Stormgod; 3- Magtuired; 4- Cursus; 5- At Dusk We Rise


This is a really climatic and epic CD! The vocals are closer to black metal but the guitars prefer to play riffs with melodies than doing superfast one note riffs. This recording is powerful, and the main thing here are the great arrangements that the band makes on each song. I can feel some Emperor and Enslaved influences here and there but this guys play their music in a completely different way than this bands. The guitarists are extremely heavy contrasting with the vocalist that sometimes uses clean vocals in a really effective way. I would have mixed a little bit louder the snare drum and bass drum to make a little bit more crushing the result. The overall result is really good for those who love dark music.

Favorite tracks: "Stormgod" and "At Dusk We Rise".
