'Starfire Burning...' saw an increase in the prominence of Jonny Maudling's keyboards, and here they ... more ... are pretty much permitted to lead the way, second only to Byron Roberts' inimitable narration. While anyone approaching Bal-Sagoth for the first time will obviously find the lyrical focus to be the major make-or-break quality, it's the keyboards here that will allow fans to rate this album more specifically, and for the most part I almost hate them. Gone is the dark, brooding atmosphere, replaced with synthesised fanfares that seem to signal a perpetual state of victory, and there are some truly horrible fantasy touche...more |

After the dark and compelling epic narratives of Bal-Sagoth's previous two albums, the generally lighter and jollier direction taken on 'Battle Magic' comes across as quite a disappointment, and sees the band enter a comparative lapse in their career that's still greatly superior and infinitely more fascinating than that of many of their contemporaries. The album title should be revealing enough of this album's style for those in the know, and it does bear similarities to earlier and later metal albums that attempt something similarly epic and triumphal, most notably Turisas' later 'Battle Metal' that seems to take much of its influence from here.

Products similar to Battle Magic - Bal Sagoth
Begins fairly promisingly. 
Short, immature and amateur. It's still adequate for Jovi's fans Dissapointed content. You'll find out in my review Lots of Great Songs One or Two Poorer Ones Mixture of loud heavy music, screams and melodic chorus's blends together so well Screams could be a bit too much for some people, but I love it! Stoner influence makes it more than tolerable. Grind is disappointing and intrusive. Some good stoner riffs and competent grind. Many tracks still feel superfluous.Tales Of Creation - Candlemass
Successful experiments alongside the trusted familiar style. Messiah Marcolin's increasingly elaborate performance threatens to collapse the universe.
Nude - Camel
Progressive Rock - 1989
Nightfall - Candlemass
Everything you needed to know about doom metal. Elaborate vocal performance may deter some.
Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious - Carcass
Perfect fusion of Carcass' two eras, with excellent and ferocious musicianship. Longer songs may deter some.
From The 13th Sun - Candlemass
A very different sound with great use of effects. This is... this is just Black Sabbath, isn't it? But ever-so-slightly rearranged?
Epicus Doomicus Metallicus - Candlemass
Quality album with moving tracks None
King Of The Grey Islands - Candlemass
Still on top form, the band's finest album since the eighties. Prevalence of filler material.
Chapter Six - Candlemass
Still strong with a new singer and new direction. Early tracks seem disappointing by comparison.
Candlemass - Candlemass
Reunion and return to form. Tries too hard to please the fans.
Ancient Dreams - Candlemass
Continues the epic doom style, with a spectacular vocal performance throughout. Songs are starting to sound the same.
