“Vengeance,” pushes the boundaries of acceptability, running rings around sensibility, it delivers an emphatic opener. “Run Like The Wind,” swirls around the portals of time, swishing into the mindscape of time immemorial, lulling the listener into a complicated sense of right and wrong. “Hall Of Heroes,” works the melody into the growing sense of despair that the protagonist must be feeling and works in a complicated narrative.
“The Seer,” is a riff rager and a half. A song that pushes the boundaries full force, ensuring that the listener does not forget where to turn to or how to get back from the whirlpool of time. “Dark Cold Day,” wraps itself in the blanket of time and darkness, working to push the boundaries of time for a few cents and poison. “Remorse,” slows things down and brings contemplation to the fore.
“Ghost Of Yesterday,” swarms the periphery, pushing the whirlwind forward and turning the listener inside out as it expounds on the necessary degrees for insanity. “Scream,” works in a torrent of disabuse and severity to torment the periphery for all and sundry. “Together,” works around the disparate natures of time and shapes them into something new and forceful, an epic finisher.
The album is out on 27th November via Rockshots Records.
