The House of Atreus - Act II: Wings of Vengeance (A Barbaric Romantic Opera) Reviews
Date : 2012-07-17
The House Of Atreus의 후편으로 90분에 육박하는 거대한 구성의 더블시디로 제작되었다. 멤버들의 외모에서도 물씬 풍겨오는 중세적이고 서사적인 음의 향연을 접할 수 있는데, 여전히 정곡을 찌르는 듯한 Edward Purdino의 기타사운드와 수려한 오케스트레이션을 들을 수 있지만 그 강도가 전작보다는 어느정도 떨어지는 느낌이다. 수려한 멜로디를 지닌 Fire Of Ecstasy, 컨셉의 대미를 장식하는 대곡 Resurrection Day등이 앨범의 하이라이트이다.
Best Track : Fire Of Ecstasy , Resurrection Day (The Finale)
