This is the second stab for Kataklysm's frontman Maurizio Iacono to pay homage to his Italian heritage. And while Ex Deo's debut album, Romulus, was still very much "katatklysmic", their latest effort sure is not.
Caligvla is much more atmospheric and reminds me more of a soundtrack to a movie than a metal album, with stories about the brutal, yet very short, reign of one of Ancient Rome's most tyrannical Emperor's, Caligula.

I'm so glad I had the pleasure of listening to this epic album, It's awesome, definitely appearing in my personal top ten for this year. Makes me want to watch the 1979 film with Malcom Mcdowell (which I just ordered actually). "If only all of Rome had just one neck".
