It's odd that Anna Murphy's druidic side should emerge more fully post-Eluveitie. Cellar Darling's debut pulled from the occultic weirdness that she had explored more with Lethe, Nucleus Torn, and other projects, lashing these macabre tendencies to a deceptively heavy rock skeleton. The Spell sounds tighter and more confident in exactly the way a sophomore album should.

Very well crafted album, definitely better than the previous one. Being a concept album is a bonus in my point of view.

Gives me feelings simmilar at those I had when I first listened Wasteland by Riverside

A true masterpiece for my personal tastes. Maybe the album of the year in my opinion (at least until BG releases their orchestral album

This is SO good. I liked the first album moderately, I didn't expect this one to be on another whole different level. Maybe it's just me being a sucker for concept albums, but I'm loving this a lot.

The genre info is misleading, this is more like progressive gothic metal

Exactly. This need to be changed. It is closer to The Gathering than any folk act.

Gothic? Nope...
But after all, it has been nominated here so thanks to both of you for the heads-up.

The vocals are good but the music is so generic.
