│║ ║ │
│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Never heard of Magni Animi Viri? Well, that's ║ │
│║ odd, considering the fact that they're tossing ║ │
│║ armloads of money into the project and the ║ │
│║ promotion... They have no record label. They ║ │
│║ simply released the album under their band name. ║ │
│║ Then again, when you've got as much money as ║ │
│║ these guys appear to have, you probably don't ║ │
│║ NEED a label. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The music sounds like a Rhapsody of Fire ballad. ║ │
│║ You know, the Italian ones ù like "Il Canto Del ║ │
│║ Vento." The full lyrical content of Heroes ║ │
│║ Temporis is in Italian, though they do have a ║ │
│║ meticulously put-together English "brochure" ║ │
│║ that you could read if you're really that ║ │
│║ interested in the lyrics. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ There's something special about listening to a ║ │
│║ different language and having no idea what is ║ │
│║ being said. Italian is a very beautiful ║ │
│║ language, and that beauty does rub off on the ║ │
│║ music, whereas English would have seemed less ║ │
│║ grand. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The main vocal performances that shift between ║ │
│║ Francesco Napoletano and Ivana Giugliano are ║ │
│║ performed in an overly dramatic manner. I ║ │
│║ checked the lyric book to see what was so damn ║ │
│║ sad on "...Temporis," and if anything, the ║ │
│║ vocals should be performed happily. The topics ║ │
│║ are fantasy mixed with highschool-level emo ║ │
│║ poetry. One line reads, "Now I feel like rock, ║ │
│║ like water springing from the pure font." How ║ │
│║ can you feel like rock, but be like water? ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ I wouldn't go as far as to call Heroes Temporis ║ │
│║ a "masterpiece rock opera," but it is a rock ║ │
│║ opera, nonetheless... and it's above average, to ║ │
│║ say the least. The orchestral arrangements, ║ │
│║ played by the Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra Sif. ║ │
│║ 309, are incredible ù without them, there ║ │
│║ probably wouldn't be much album left. "Finche" ║ │
│║ is a pleasant ballad that could probably work ║ │
│║ without the orchestra: nice piano opening, and a ║ │
│║ simplistic yet fittingly heavy guitar part fills ║ │
│║ in the verse and chorus sections. The acoustic ║ │
│║ guitar is quite nice as well, though can be ║ │
│║ pretty hard to hear with everything going at ║ │
│║ once. It's almost like listening to a washboard ║ │
│║ scratch! ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The thing that is great about Heroes Temporis is ║ │
│║ also somewhat of a negative aspect as well: The ║ │
│║ generally short song length. The songs range ║ │
│║ between three to five minutes, and usually ║ │
│║ feature a solo. The changing mood and style of ║ │
│║ each song is also a refreshing experience. ║ │
│║ However, the sense of adventure is lost on such ║ │
│║ short songs and such hard transitions between ║ │
│║ each song. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Fans of prog rock and rock operas in general ║ │
│║ will find something to love in Heroes Temporis, ║ │
│║ but it may be hard to digest for the non- ║ │
│║ hardcore prog folks. ║ │
