ABSU - In The Eyes Of Ioldánach MCD

Never Blow Out the Eastern Candle. Oh yes its here the highlight of the album. Did I say V.I.T.R.I.O.L. was great? This song blows all the other songs on the album to pieces. Never Blow Out the Eastern Candle sounds atypical of the rest of the songs. The songs were different to each other, but this is way out there. It has that epic feeling that Stone of Destiny had later. Interestingly enough this song was written in 1993 instead of 1997 like the rest. Every instrument has a great place in the mix. The riffs in it are quite marvelous. Proscriptor in this song shows off a lot, but it does not have fills every other second and is not obnoxious. Proscriptor goes berserk on his kit, but he has a nice sense of melody.
