AGATHODAIMON

Release Year: 2008
Artist Origin: GER
Style: loud darkened neosymphonic atmospheric metal

the fourth longplay [2004] by ever-evolving German entity was perhaps the most significant step away from initial atmospheric black metal paradigm, getting more and more involved into what was called a gothic sound, but technically it meant much more accessible, straightforward heavy rock approach, simplified song structures and more glamour delivered in obscure, darkened manner - not particularly a bad release, it has its moments nonetheless, especially if you prefer your metal with more entertaining angle; exclusive Polish machine-numbered digipak re-issue on golden disc with a remastered sound, multimedia video section and sixteen page booklet is limited to 2000 units, copy #0885
