KHORS - Where The Word Acquires Eternity Digi-CD

The songs are very much in the same vein as their previous three releases (Beyond the Bestial, Night Falls Onto the Fronts of Ours and Wisdom of Centuries), but in my opinion, Where the Word Acquires Eternity is more dynamic. The album starts off with "Starvation", which is aggressive, but still conveys plenty of emotion and atmosphere, and ends with "Beneath the Keen Edge of Time", which is the longest track and feels very much like a closer and the perfect way to end the album. A good way to encapsulate the general mood of this album is atmospheric. Compared to the other Ukrainian black metal bands, Khors has always come across as more melodic, atmospheric and accessible. While I love good old Pagan black metal, especially of Ukrainian origin, and Khors demonstrates how the genre can be expanded while not losing the listener in needless meandering.

Again, Where the Word Acquires Eternity is just about as perfect as it can be.
