This is with no doubt not only one of the recordings of the month but also one of the best records of the year!!!! Confligo have perfectly made a fusion of black and death metal with classical elments and amazing orchestration. Here we have nine splendid tracks full of amazing arrangements and melodies that are designed to revive different feelings in the listener: anguish, sadness. And everything is done here with extreme beauty: from the orchestration, to the keyboards arrangement to the guitar melodies. This guys know what they are doing and how to achieve the results that they want. One extra point goes to this guys for having the help of such a talented soprano as Antonella Raimondi is. A must for every lover of music in all its forms.

Favorite tracks: A masterpiece
