Carcosa,' and there's an even greater presence of lead guitars and atmospheric sections leading to Ancient Rites' most melodic album yet. Not that there's any inherent problem in a change of direction such as this, but it feels more like a deterioration into slower, repetitive and less memorable metal than some of their earlier classics. Günther's entirely sung vocals are still enjoyable, and tend to remain in a lower pitch than his slightly squeaky performance on the previous album, but the verses and choruses ...more |

After a gap of five years and an odd line-up change that saw old guitarists Bart Vandereycken and Raf Jansen rejoin Ancient Rites after the departure of Jan Yrlund, 'Rvbicon' was eagerly anticipated by the band's growing fan base, and it appears to have been warmly received. Admittedly it was less of a wait for me, as I'd only heard the previous 'Dim Carcosa' about an hour earlier, but this most recent release still managed to be something of a disappointment.

Nice experiment 
Some lyrics overly cheesy Fun - Motorheadesque punk None A nice range of songs from the first three albums. Too early for a live album, and there's nothing particularly exciting about it. A more energetic take on the Astral Doors sound. Subject matter feels a little too arbitrary. Lead singers voice has improved, great guitar and drums A lot of it grows on you - short time disadvantage, long time advantage!World To Come - Maya Beiser
Beautiful, haunting music for cello; enough to convert me to a Beiser's fan! Not that I can recognise
Wild Heart - Stevie Nicks
A must for fans only, returns with the same dry acoustic sound, strong singles. Not like Bella Donna and loses composure thanks to conflicting and confusing lyrics,
The Sky Moves Sideways - Porcupine Tree
Beautiful, Stunning, Relaxing, Desert Island None
Maniacal Laughter - Bouncing Souls
More consistent. Less exciting.
In The Meantime - Christine McVie
The only recent album from the one half of British talent of Fleetwood Mac; calming qualities. Some dated songs, not enough fresh content. Too familiar sometimes.
High Times: Singles 1992-2006 - Jamiroquai
Lots of danceable tracks A little bit repetitive
Filosofem - Burzum
The first few tracks are superb atmospheric black metal at its finest The remainder of the album is nothingness
Children Of Love - Fuckpony
Well, they're called Fuckpony... a few weak tracks drag down the others
A Weekend In The City - Bloc Party
A very good second album, some really well made tracks takes a bit longer to get into than Silent Alarm
