Time I

An excellent return from a legendary band. I think this album is a worthy follow up to the debut album, even though the debut will always be one of my favorite albums of all time.

Too short a duration, the sound is more like a soundtrack than a serious metal, mediocre riffs, the dominant value of synthesizing orchestras, without which there would be nothing to listen to. Anyway, eight years could be spent not on composing thirteen unfortunate songs, but on preserving endangered snail species. But still. No other group has this special, fascinating Finnish spirit. Frankness and a desire to create music for the soul makes the humble genius Jari Maenpaa one of the most outstanding composers of our time. I have no doubt that the release of the second part of this masterpiece, which will take place in about a year, will only add fans to the team and inspire him to more fruitful activities.
