Happy 300th review!
Thanks  |
|
|
|
| Great album this is. imo it surpasses Human Antithesis. |
|
|
|
| I also really like that cover art. I'll check this out asap. |
|
|
|
The preview samples sound like a sure thing, very ominous indeed, and I can hear part of some great solos in there  |
|
|
|
This seems quite interesting, I'll be sure to check it out as soon as possible 
Dude, you should keep on writing reviews  |
|
|
|
| Too long, pompous, overblown and, to be honest, this apocalyptic theme is getting tiring, in my opinion... the grave of civilization... how original! New singer far too whiny... HA was miles better. I suspect Marcel's equation Italians + Metal = bad is correct this time 'round... |

Nope here the equation is wrong. 
This is a great album imo, better than Human Antithesis.
Who is HA? Or do you somehow mean Alan Averill a.k.a. Naihmass Nemtheanga |

Okay, it's still early for me. I should have known you meant the album title and NOT the vocalist  |

I know it is Italian but this is one of the exceptions to the rule about Italian metal. This one is good whereas usually Italian metal/doom is bad. |

come on, there are lots of good Italian bands... Forgotten Tomb, Arcana Coelestia, Urna, Ufomammut, How Like A Winter, Consummatum Est, The Foreshadowing, Thunderstorm. Novembre (doomish), Void Of Silence (:P), Doomsword... are they all bad? |

Forgotten Tomb used to be good. AC = good, Urna I still have to check. Ufomammut is good, How Like A Winter I hate, Thunderstorm is crap, Novembre is crap, Doomsword is crap, the Foreshadowing is crap, Consummatum I still have to check. Void Of Silence is good.
Doomraiser is okay btw.
The problem with Italians and metal (not just doom) is that they make it sound so incredibly cheesy. Even though I like VoS it is still quite cheesy. |

This album is very conceptual poetry and They have tried modern human problems as well as display...In terms of the music were acceptable
Although the singer will be changed each year group but Quality group is not reduced |

| Good album name, a better cover art and excellent music. Vocals are as well too, I think it will be in the first top 10 albums of MS doom metal awards this year. |

| Thanks again for this review Rozz, I may have missed this album for quite some time. I received it in the mail a few days back, and the review echoes my thoughts exactly. And, "Apt Epitaph" is just beautifully vacant. The artwork reflects the music seemlessly, as well as my own perspective on life lately Not so many 9s or 10s this year from me, but this has made it to the list |

You're very welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it that much! Yeah, the artwork reflects my point of view somehow as well i'm still searching for my ten for this year |

I disagree. Vocals fit to this album very well (for me). |

Holy shit, you weren't kidding. I like what I've heard so far in their myspace, nice stuff indeed but there's still *that* tiny bit of cheese that puts me off. I can take the cheese from other bands like My Dying Bride because I like them that way, but this music is too good to sound cheesy
But still.... awesome music and maybe it won't get my vote for best Doom album but it sure as hell gets the best doom artwork... It's beautiful. |

| Incredible album! I already discover it and it amazes me with its gloomy atmosphere... |
