Our Take
Our Take
CORVUS CORAX's latest album, Era Metallum, is a journey through the realms of medieval metal unlike anything we've ever experienced before. With their signature blend of traditional folk instruments and heavy metal riffs, this German band effortlessly transports listeners to a time when knights roamed the land and dragons were a constant threat.
From the opening track, "Inferno", to the epic conclusion of "Kingdom of Heaven", CORVUS CORAX captivates audiences with their infectious energy and unbridled passion for storytelling through music. The haunting vocals of Castus Karsten Liehm combined with the thunderous drumming of Wim Dobbrisch create a sonic landscape that is both aggressive and mesmerizing.
One of the highlights of Era Metallum is the track "Sieben Steine", which features guest vocals from the legendary metal vocalist Floor Jansen. Her powerful voice adds an extra layer of intensity to an already adrenaline-fueled song, making it a standout track on an album filled with standout moments.
Overall, CORVUS CORAX has once again proven why they are one of the leading bands in the medieval metal genre. Era Metallum is a triumph of artistic vision and musical talent, and a must-listen for fans of both traditional folk music and heavy metal. Grab your sword and shield, and prepare for a musical adventure like no other with CORVUS CORAX. Score: 8.5
