Borealis – Purgatory 2015
So far this young and talented Canadian melodic metallers may mostly be known to insiders and a smaller but devoted fanbase, but their new album PURGATORY proves that Borealis belong to the best bands in the genre. After the self-released WORLD OF SILENCE (2008) and 2011’s FALL FROM GRACE, now with PURGATORY the band reaches a whole new level. Their surprisingly high recognition value not only comes from the tasteful instrumentations but also from Matt Marinelli’s expressive voice which elegantly guides through the twelve songs on PURGATORY.
Borealis create atmospheric depth like only few others are able to do. Their partly quite modern guitar riffs merge with classic power metal, progressive elements and a symphonic touch, to build a heavy and intense, yet melodic sound which fans of bands like Evergrey, Kamelot and Nocturnal Rites will embrace to the fullest.
