Description

2014, It is every bit the Kaledon that you expect, and its a completely on-track continuation of ALTOR: THE KING'S BLACKSMITH. The album is fraught with fast, fairly static double bass drumming, rapidly picked chord progressions, dramatic choruses, and pulp fantasy stories of conflict and heroism. Opener ,,The Calm Before The Storm" is not actually an ambient intro (that's its predecessor, ,,In Aeternum"), but an uplifting anthem with a grandiose chorus that blooms in great fashion. They may not be original, but when Kaledon is on its game, they can create an inspiring sing-along with some of the scene's best. Things get mixed up with the more grim ,,Friends Will Be Enemies" and the respectable ballad ,,Elisabeth" before the rollicking ,,The Party". These fellows wear their fantasy-obsessed metal hearts proudly pinned to their gilded breastplates, and ANTILLIUS: THE KING OF THE LIGHT is by and large another delightful example of good Italian power metal done just the way you'd like it to be.
