Some genres really don't go along with each other, I used to think that mixing Death and Doom was a bad idea, then Arcanar appeared at my doorstep and made me think twice, this is definitely one of the most interesting albums this year! This is also really hard to digest though, the band plays Death/Doom metal while tapping the vein of Amorphis and Novembers Doom, the music is actually quite fresh as most of the time you'll be hearing acoustic passages and mild solos that are in one word uplifting and by far intriguing, but it's impossible not to notice the influences this band has, the main scheme comes in the form of melodious intros+Death Metal+gloomy atmospheres and more acoustic passages; the truth is, even if we have seen this formula before, the band manages to keep the music flowing with intensity and aggression and it never gets old or boring, a good way to show their songwriting abilities and good extra features.
