Metal Reviews

Music much more reminiscent of Damnation than Heritage (guitars sounding like Windowpane from Damnation?) so I'll say I enjoyed it a lot, excepting Steve Wilson's intrusion at the 5 minute mark.

Interesting stuff.

I've heard Wilson sings more than Akerfeldt on the album which dampened my excitement a bit :(

It s very hard to describe this music as it is so different from most things around right now (at least as far as I know)," said Wilson. "I said it was the "opposite of metal" because I think a lot of people might have assumed from the two people involved that this would be some kind of progressive / metal thing, but in fact it s quite a minimal album with a lot of space and beauty, orchestral and organic, hardly any drums and no distorted guitars "twisted beautiful" is the best way I can describe it.

Some of the music on this record I think is the most beautiful music I have participated on ever," adds Åkerfeldt. "There's some magical sections on there. Musically I think we've created something earthy, a bit frightening, exhausting, profound and rather intense. All at the same time. I can safely say I don't know any other band or artist that sounds anything like Storm Corrosion. I guess that was also one of our goals, so to speak.

Am i the only one who is bored to tears listening to this song? I love prog and all but this was just boring, i hope the full album is better...That's just my humble opinion.
