this is goofy as hell i love it
wonder why it has such a low rating on RYM?

 

[Krow]

Dude that album is awesome. Maybe they didn't listen to enough of the songs to form a proper opinion?

 

[EchoForever]

i think RYM generally has bad taste in metal

Taake - ...Doedskvad

This has exceeded my expectations. Deserves at least an honourable mention for 2005. I always just assumed this band was black-metal-by-numbers, coasting on the Norwegian Black Metal brand name. But this album is quite adroitly-crafted while never straying far from the traditional second wave black metal sound. I can't vouch for the band as a whole since this is generally considered its magnum opus.

This is some pretty damn amazing Brazilian power metal.
@Talos of Atmora I think you would love this man.

Yeah, I've heard it before. It's a pretty great album. It is unfortunate that it only ever proved to be a glimpse at what Angra would do later (with greater success) due to Viper dropping power metal for good. If they had developed the sound they had on Soldiers of Sunrise and Theatre of Fate, they would have been fantastic.
