│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Cyprus is not the most illustrious & reputed ║ │
│║ place when itÆs comes to Heavy Music, but the ║ │
│║ real Metal connoisseurs and the curious steel ║ │
│║ collectors are aware of a deep ancestral secret ║ │
│║ , they know that this Mediterranean little ║ │
│║ island , holds a strong potential and a fierce ║ │
│║ tradition in the old school Heavy Metal stuff, ║ │
│║ the territory is already the sacred homeland of ║ │
│║ some true Epic Metal acts such as the talented ║ │
│║ ARRAYAN PATH / ASTRONOMIKON or WINTERÆS VERGE ║ │
│║ and it restrain a stupendous devoted ║ │
│║ organization, a brotherhood congregation very ║ │
│║ active in the underground, with first and ║ │
│║ foremost the label Pitch Black Records and some ║ │
│║ numerous legions of fans that are walking ║ │
│║ faithfully with pride under the might banner of ║ │
│║ the loud and mighty sound of the thunderÆs god. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The album ôSundown on Humanityö is the much ║ │
│║ awaited opus by the Heavy / Power Metal band ║ │
│║ ARMAGEDDON REV.16:16 æs first full-length CD, ║ │
│║ however this highly respected band was formed in ║ │
│║ 1985, and it detained a fervent reputation, some ║ │
│║ kind of a legendary cult status! Indeed, in ║ │
│║ their thirty year career for those veterans, ║ │
│║ this is like the climax of a lifetime ║ │
│║ dedication, because since then they just have ║ │
│║ released some demos and EPs, but this is a ║ │
│║ fantastic step forward and a real cornerstone ║ │
│║ for them, but does is worth all the band's ║ │
│║ efforts, through all those years of waiting? ║ │
│║ ôSundown on Humanityö includes a few surprise ║ │
│║ appearances by Bob Katsionis (FIREWIND) that is ║ │
│║ guesting on keyboards and guitar, the famous ║ │
│║ Nicholas Leptos (ARRAYAN PATH, WARLORD), Tasos ║ │
│║ Karonias (R.U.S.T.) or Andreas Paraschos (BLYND) ║ │
│║ on vocals. As Mr. Katsionis also mixed and ║ │
│║ mastered the record at his own Sound Symmetry ║ │
│║ Studio in Athens, the production reveal a good ║ │
│║ density and as expected the sound is quite good, ║ │
│║ clear and crisp but not too modern very much in ║ │
│║ perfect concordance with the genre. In fact the ║ │
│║ style displayed here is Fast/energetic with high ║ │
│║ pitched vocals and sharp riffage, clearly ║ │
│║ flavored by the iconic giants tag such as GAMMA ║ │
│║ RAY / IRON SAVIOR or early LABYRINTH with an ║ │
│║ important emphasis on Heroic themes and ║ │
│║ ambiances about Fantasy and Mythologyà Or only ║ │
│║ about Heavy Metal: which is always a good thingà ║ │
│║ Because Metal is the law! The album clocks at 58 ║ │
│║ minutes and close with a masterpiece full of ║ │
│║ Balkan overtones, that magnificent Epic cut ôIcy ║ │
│║ Blackness (Kursk)ö, tells the Submarine disaster ║ │
│║ saga that occurred in the Barens Sea, as a ║ │
│║ tribute to the crew of the Russian boat Kursk ║ │
│║ that perished in the summer of 2000. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ With this track ARMAGGEDON REV 16:16 shows that ║ │
│║ they have still plenty of resources and great ║ │
│║ abilities for the future to comeà IMHO this is ║ │
│║ the right path! ôSundown on Humanityö is a very ║ │
│║ solid release, the players are competent and the ║ │
│║ singer Jimmy Mayromatis has a powerful and ║ │
│║ expressive voice but the songwriting is very ║ │
│║ orthodox, so nothing really new under the sun of ║ │
│║ Nicosia, so this collection of Metal songs will ║ │
│║ be valorized only in the hands and ears of the ║ │
│║ True Metalheadsà No modern tricks or ║ │
│║ contemporary trendy gimmick, just the bold and ║ │
│║ solid sound of the timeless alloy that flow in ║ │
│║ our veins. ║ │
│║ ║ │
