I loved Stormbringer Ruler and although there's a lot of bands playing this type of epic metal, Domine just seemed to "get it right" and produced a real gem of an epic true metal album. Emperor Of The Black Runes comes almost three years after that release and sees the band delivering a solid album much in the same vein but overall, the songs and band performances are not nearly as good.
Fans of the band will find lots to like about the album, it's just that there's a few average songs and some of the vocals, solos and song arrangements are not up to par as well. I'm a little disappointed as I was expecting a killer album from these guys. It still has several killer tracks but all in all, Stormbringer Ruler still rules over this one.
Reviewed by Marty. This new album from Italy's Domine is the band's 4th album and their latest release since 's awesome Stormbringer Ruler album. This alone, plus the fact that there are only 5 known former members of the band is quite a feat.
No matter how many demos they released during the mid-eighties and early ninties, they always kept on going, and never gave up.
Colour me impressed. That's what I call devotion to music. Now, onto the review Domine are a power metal band that mixed different styles, such as epicness, and driving speed. Over half of the songs on their fourth studio album, "Emperor of the Black Runes" are of the fast persuation, and there is only a very small assortment of mid-paced and ballad songs to be found, which is how I prefer my metal.
After the very epic and symphonic intro track, the album kicks off into "Battle Gods Of the Universe " which features lightning-fast riffage, epic keyboarding, vocals with occasional layered choirs and cool tapping guitar solos. A very fine way to start an album like this. Many of the faster songs on this album play out similar to "Battle Gods". So, with that in mind, how does Domine try to mix things up on this album? Firstly, on their slower songs such as the brilliantly written "Icarus Ascending", and "The Forest of Light" make use of extremely uplifting and happy sounding clean and acoustic guitar ;ines that with entrance you during the verses, as the heavy distortion guitar sounds come in for triumphant chorus lines.
The overall effect is dazzling. True believer — Domine. Dragonlord — Domine. Traduzioni recenti. Clicca e scopri gli album del Cosa stai cercando?
