The Ruin Of Nova Roma
2 x LP
It’s tough to pinpoint the band’s sound. Aggro metal, for sure, but from there it gets tougher to define. You’ve got songs like “The Sound-Out Competition” and “Drunken Marksmen,” which have the hell-bent biker metal sound of a band like Entombed, but with the more abrasive bite of a Converge-like outfit. The title track starts off sparsely and gradually builds to an uplifting peak, maintaining an intense level of heavy. “The Idol/The Memory,” my favorite of the ten songs, is based on a rolling bass line that steamrolls into a crushing riff. It’s a direct song, but there’s a fair amount of complexity underneath it. “Amaranthine” is a slow burning, almost doom-ish song that features some haunting vocals by a female guest singer (unnamed on the promotional copy). And the final song, “Cours et Conquistadors,” has an almost straightforward rock beat to it. Limited edition of only 630 copies! Deluxe gatefold sleeve.
