Alessa as a new singer makes an excellent and technical character, guitar increase is second to none!
Production waived first long on duplicated song, which has soured me the joy of many Arch Enemy plates. Whether Alissa Angela can replace? Yes! Go to one of their concerts and will be more than pleasantly surprised. The woman is an absolute stunner.
Musically, this record 100% Arch Enemy. Very strong melodies controlled Heavy / Power / Death Metal with extreme vocals, at times the more shimmer through the mixed ingredients, sometimes less. Much has indeed written on the safe side, however, provide string arrangements and a targeted and appropriately used innovation, culminating in Time Is Black in climax.
The album is very great cinema who liked Arch Enemy anyway, is to blindly strike.
