It has been almost three years since these Italians released their amazing debut album full of sorrow and depression, Days Of Nothing. It was an amazing piece of art, but difficult to seize in it's plenitude, as you had to be in a very special feeling to absorb it, but when you succeeded, you knew that it was worth. In the meantime they also changed their record label, joining Cyclone Empire records. Like the first album, it's almost the same this time with Oionos, but done even better. It's no surprise that the music is so depressive as some members come from known Italian bands Klimt 1918 and How Like A Winter, but this formation is certainly some steps above their former projects.

This is lost beauty from the age between rise of metal in 90is and its fall in 00s! Maybe the metal will be again music created by creative people.

Great job! I didn't know what to expect after briliant debut, but now I'm satisfied. Very nice cover song (Russians) indeed.

I prefer "Days Of Nothing" but I can't disagree "Chant Of Woods" is awesome!!

Oh yeah, I listened to it alright. It's not healthy to me listening to depressive songs, as if I'm not screwed up enough. However, listening from the beginning to the end, it really is a whole album. Haunting atmosphere.

The sting cover was brilliant also.
