Where can I
get the CD?
Pantokrator - Blod |
|
Take a big dose of Swedish death metal and add some beautiful female vocals and mix it all with some
superb lyrics, then you have Pantokrator. It took some months before I decided to put this disc
(shame on me) in to my stereo, but since I did that I've been playing their fullength album, Blod
constantly! They call themself death metal with some progressive influences and I agree, but I would rather call it traditional death metal with some influences here and there, but the result is anyway absolutely stunning! Great music but awesome lyrics! In fact the lyrics is some of the best I've ever read in my entire life. Telling about what God has done for us, through the sacrifice of Jesus and other things. Musically, I specially like the violin which is used at some good chosen places throughout the CD.They add an extra edge to the brutal death metal we get and they fit perfectly. There are numbers of good tunes here and I really recommend you reading the lyrics while listening to the music, though the lyrics are sung in Swedish, English translation is included so you can catch the message. For me this is one of the finest releases of the year 2003 and while they may not be as thunderous and furious as Crimson Moonlight this is still a very fine piece of metal art, waiting to be collected by you. |
