Macabre Sunsets is both a step forward and backwards from the Nightfall debut Parade Into Centuries. Forward in that it more aptly evokes the hybrid of death, black and Gothic metal atmosphere that the band were trying to craft on the earlier record, but back in that the production is often quite boxy, overly loud and annoying for the vocals. What I most enjoy here is the substrate of sorrowful melodies being strung out over the percussive barrage, powerful if corny synthesizers lines; elegies being cast above a churning and grunting war machine, but once broken down into its constituent elements you wonder just how much better this might sound with a more potent balance of such struggling weights
