Sok újat nem találtál ki, hiába nincs új a nap alatt :-)))

Vintersorg
“Cosmic Genesis” (9 tracks. 50:20 ).
Were it a fluke we would have known it by now. But as it is, it is not a fluke. After an E.P. and two full lengths, Vintersorg comes at us once again with some fresh and deeply satisfying Nature Metal. I use the term “Nature Metal” because while it sounds similar to Black Metal in the vein of Arcturus at times, it really lacks the occultic overtones. I don’t call it Viking Metal because it doesn’t really make use of Viking themes, although Till Fjalls and Odenmarkens Son may be construed that way. And finally, I don’t call it Norwegian Metal because he is from Sweden. I think Nature Metal sums it all up quite well.

I have the feeling that Vintersorg is a young man talented beyond his years as this album, like the others, display a vast resource of creative talent that is shown in his musicianship as well as his dynamic voice. As a painter Vintersorg paints a broad canvas. As a sculpture of tunes, he finely chisels each detail, creating a lifelike work of art. And with these talents Vintersorg has effectively captured the beauty and mystery of God’s grand universe and put it into song. This time he lets us even hear him singing in English on a few tracks. With these English lyrics Vintersorg is likely to greatly expand his listening audience, perhaps even get to tour the States. Most notable are the songs “Astral and Arcane”, “A Dialogue with the Stars”, and “Cosmic Genesis”. Finally, the album ends with a very stirring and quiet tune, “The Enigmatic Spirit”. It is simply beautiful. Cosmic Genesis is definitely one of the most significant Metal releases of recent memory.
