Solstice New Dark Age Rar
This album is a stone cold classic, mostly, kind of. When I was doing primary school teaching, the giving feedback to kids strategy was something like 'two deposits for every transaction', ie two bits of praise for every bit of negative feedback. Well, let's get the negative feedback out of the way first.
Yeah, so the vocals. Well they aren't horrible, but considering how ridiculously great the rest of the album is it's a real strange thing. Devoid of power- you know how people sing when they aren't confident? Well, it's pretty much that. Very little range, no real power, just kinda whining. Considering that the vocalist didn't even write the lyrics- which by the way, are these nicely over the top lyrics that take verbosity way beyond parody- you've got to wonder why he's even in the band. You get a few guys together, and chances are that one of them will be a better singer than this guy. Real strange.
It's made more perplexing when you compare the vocals to the rest of the album, which is just ridiculously good, in pretty much every way. It's not particularly far out or anything, but it doesn't really sound like much else- I'm thinking a more muscular While Heaven Wept circa their Vast Oceans.. album, or early Atlantean Codex. It borrows a lot from early death doom, decent bit of early, non shit Katatonia and even Anathema in here, and I reckon in some places there's even a touch of melodic black metal- bit of Sacramentum and that Decameron band or whatever. That said, the core here is pure heavy/doom stuff- a lot of early Candlemass, Pagan Altar, NWOBHM-on-steroids sort of thing. It's a really great mix, and it's done super well.
Anyway, it's real huge and ticks off all the boxes with aplomb. A thicker atmosphere than Jupiter, while still being monstrously heavy. Catchy, but rarely veering into outright melodic territory. Great, lyrical dual leads. A mood that could best be described as 'a medieval english knight getting rained on', rather gloomy, rather grim, occasionally very fierce. The songs are rarely in a hurry to finish, but when the songwriting is this tight, when the parts are this good, that's fine. It's pretty rare I think a 67 minute album isn't long enough. but here I am, wishing there were a few more songs. I can perhaps nitpick a little bit- some of the acoustic parts drag. That's pretty much it.
So, the vocals are bad but the rest is world class- as in, all-time classic sorta thing. How to rate it? Well, after 50 odd listens I'm still not sure! The best comparison I can come up with is perhaps Briton Rites' excellent but flawed For Mircalla, where massive riffs where dragged down by some generic, whiny doom vocals. Here, it's perhaps not as bad- plenty of long sections with few vocals, the dude isn't super offensive and if nothing else it's fun wrapping yourself around the idiosyncratic lyrics. The question is- does the album succeed, despite it's weakness? The answer is an overwhelming yes, for me. So highly recommended.

'New Dark Age (originally released in 1998) is said to be the bands top release. If you feel Doom Metal is too boring for your likes, try this album and come up with your own revamped conclusion. Eleven tracks of black Doom Metal, powerful yet dramatic, but not melodramatic at all. Free cracks and serial keys.
The riffing may be slow enough - even for Solstice - but aims straight to the soul. Ingram offers - again - some folk Metal singing but (overall) songs like 'Cimmerian Codex', 'Hammer Of Damnation' and (most of all) the 'Cromlech', 'New Dark Age II'/'Legion XVII' trio are destined to fulfil your everlasting grim.
Bonus tracks include a cover of Iron Maiden's 'The Prophecy' and Trespass' 'Stormchild'.
