Angra - Aurora Consurgens

Scream Your Heart Out! - 100%

The_Hammer_of_Fall, November 23rd, 2006

Angra’s 3rd album since its rebirth and it keeps getting better! ‘Aurora Consurgens’ undoubtedly contains their fastest, heaviest, and most impressive material to date.

Musically you are typically subjected to Angra’s trademark blazing guitar work, intricate drumming, moulded together with Eduardo Falaschi’s unique vocals. Lyrically you are taken on a loosely conceptual journey into the dark recesses of a mind overtaken by mental illness - killer stuff!

The sheer speed of the track ‘The Voice Commanding You’ will cause you to turn the volume knob hard-right. On the other hand, ‘So Near So Far’ with its Middle Eastern-style intro, displays Angra’s progressive nuances.

If the album ‘Rebirth’ caught your attention and ‘Temple of Shadows’ increased the volume, you certainly won’t be disappointed by ‘Aurora Consurgens’. Falaschi and company have yet again sealed their position as one of the leading acts in the Power Metal genre.
