░█▒ ▒█░
░█▒ After their brilliant album ╗Les Fleurs du Mal½ SOPOR AETERNUS & ▒█░
░█▒ THE ENSEMBLE OF SHADOWS are now returning to complete their ▒█░
░█▒ curious study with this equally emotional sister/release ▒█░
░█▒ ╗SANATORIUM ALTROSA û Musical Therapy for spiritual ▒█░
░█▒ Dysfunction½. Let us carefully open the beautifully designed ▒█░
░█▒ pages of the strange brochure of this ╗SANATORIUM ALTROSA½ now, ▒█░
░█▒ and risk a brief look at the wonderful music we are being ▒█░
░█▒ offered here: First up we have an instrumental version of ▒█░
░█▒ ╗Consider this: the true meaning of Love½, a rather powerful ▒█░
░█▒ neo-classical track with heavy, almost Germanic sounding ▒█░
░█▒ military drums and energetic strings sections, that finds its ▒█░
░█▒ resolution in the arrival of a funeral procession. This most ▒█░
░█▒ skillful introduction is followed by ╗Architecture II½, a track ▒█░
░█▒ somewhat reminiscent of early DEAD CAN DANCE (but with a lyrical ▒█░
░█▒ content way beyond what Brendan and Lisa ever dared to offer). ▒█░
░█▒ The old crow of ANNA-VARNEY CANTODEAÆs versatile voice is ▒█░
░█▒ floating in rivers of reverberation, accompanied by the ▒█░
░█▒ omnipresent ensemble of brass, strings, woodwinds and drums, and ▒█░
░█▒ an all male choir, that (to the end of the song) is hilariously ▒█░
░█▒ chanting away on the phenomenon of unexpected orgasms brought on ▒█░
░█▒ by the sexual powers of a certain (yet unnamed) characterÆs dark ▒█░
░█▒ charisma. The third track is a remix of ╗Shave, if you love me½, ▒█░
░█▒ followed by an instrumental edit of ╗La Mort dæArthur½, the ▒█░
░█▒ former being actually quite different from the album-version, ▒█░
░█▒ and the latter turns out to be weirdly joyful, even without the ▒█░
░█▒ innocent choir-boys in it. Track number five is the original ▒█░
░█▒ version of ╗Consider this½, this time with AVCÆs screaming ▒█░
░█▒ vocals on top of it, supported by forceful drum-parts, fragile ▒█░
░█▒ Asian instruments and lots of electronica. With the instrumental ▒█░
░█▒ piece ╗The Conqueror Worm II½ we reach the centre of ╗SANATORIUM ▒█░
░█▒ ALTROSA½, a track that might best be described as a classical, ▒█░
░█▒ string-based celebration of death and decay in all its glory. ▒█░
░█▒ Definitely one of the many highlights of this most peculiar ▒█░
░█▒ release. The warmth and enchanting beauty of the instrumental ▒█░
░█▒ version of ╗In der PalΣstra½ bridges the abyss to the sheer ▒█░
░█▒ terror of ╗Collision û you may lie on your back, if you want to ▒█░
░█▒ ... even close your eyes to sleep½. This monster of a title is ▒█░
░█▒ also a true monster of a track, evoking a rather sudden change ▒█░
░█▒ of atmosphere. In fact, it is such a contrast to the previous ▒█░
░█▒ track(s) that it comes as quite a shock to the unexpecting ▒█░
░█▒ listener. The music is now extremely dark and unsettling, with ▒█░
░█▒ more than a touch of insanity woven into it, forcing us to ▒█░
░█▒ witness the wretched spectre of shame and homoerotic necrophila ▒█░
░█▒ returning from the ancient vaults. This track is certainly ôback ▒█░
░█▒ to the rootsö à and even far beyond! The following instrumental ▒█░
░█▒ edit of ╗Les Fleurs du Mal½ is therefore a most welcome relief ▒█░
░█▒ from all this horror, literally feels like a stroll through the ▒█░
░█▒ high grass of a lovely meadow on a warm summerÆs evening. The ▒█░
░█▒ likewise instrumental treat of ╗Bitter Sweet½ is both poetic and ▒█░
░█▒ wild, a pendulum swinging to and fro beween the sweet softness ▒█░
░█▒ of a gentle harp and the frantic sound of a high-pitched violin ▒█░
░█▒ combined with powerful rock-drums. Completing the magick circle ▒█░
░█▒ is another version of the marvellously orchestrated ╗Consider ▒█░
░█▒ this: the true meaning of Love½. Here ANNA-VARNEY is basically ▒█░
░█▒ screaming her lungs out in this most painful lamentation, a ▒█░
░█▒ heartfelt plea for medically assisted suicide, the universal ▒█░
░█▒ human right for euthanesia. The dramatic choirs accompany her ▒█░
░█▒ cries of agony and frustration, as she fiercely gives the ▒█░
░█▒ illusion of any romantic Love a damn hard slap in the sometimes ▒█░
░█▒ all too rosy face! -- And with the sombre toll of the funeral ▒█░
░█▒ bell à all comes to a quiet end ▒█░
