Description

Black vinyl. Limited 500 copies

Just in case you happened to lose count, Nocturnal Rites helpfully named the eighth album of their near-two-decade career The 8th Sin, as if their resilience over so many years and releases were a true badge of honour, defying any less faithful, enduring, or fair-weather power metal bands out there. More importantly, they put their money where their pride is by delivering one of their best sets of economical power metal yet. There are some changes since the last album and the band have experimented with some layered synthesizers on Not The Only, and even a few shocking techno accents on Strong Enough and the overall atmosphere on the album may be just a tad more poppy than on the previous albums but it still sounds very much Nocturnal Rites and there doing exactly what theyre good at. Jonny Lindqvist proves that he has one of the most powerful vocals in todays metal and Nils Norberg is a guitarist that Sweden havent been blessed with since Malmsteen went to the States. This isnt the worse or the best Nocturnal Rites album but its a good one and fans of Metal in general can blindly buy this album and as a result, will be left with a huge smile on their faces
