Killing songs: The Fourth Legacy, Nights Of Arabia, Until Kingdom Come
Here comes another killer (what a world :) ), and the second I saw the
art cover I wanted to buy this album : great job on artwork ! But let's
talk about the album shall we... Fourth Legacy is the logical continuation
of Siege Perillous which is already a great album (and stays my favorite
so far), perhaps it's more heavy metal than true metal this time , and
that's not a bad thing cause some might be starting to feel sick and tired
of all the true metal wave coming on, but personnaly I like heavy metal
when it sounds so damn good. The songs are pretty original, with an arabic
touch on some of them which is a first and adds another dimension to the
songs... that actually proves that you can do whatever you want with Heavy
Metal... So this album brings atmosphere in your mind while you're listening
to it ... there is however 2 or 3 good true metal songs. The voice of
the singer is very smooth, the perfect voice for the overall tone of the
record and production is impeccable. This album is definitely the most
mature Kamelot ever made (technically and original as well), very good
!!
