Reincarnated for another descent on the material
world, the powerfully crafted quintet rains down firmly on a
once destitute wasteland having not seen the rise for a new season
in over a decade since they started. "Bleed" roots
itself in the finest metal tradition, bold, yet majestic in all
its splendor, where magic and tragedy exist hand in hand in what
for them figures to be a more favorable climate than in years
past. A Savatage for all seasons as presented on their newest
creation, "Angel Dust" leaves little doubt that room
for talented musical expression still serves a useful purpose
exemplified in such noteworthy moments of glory as with "Bleed,"
"Black Rain" and "Never." "Angel Dust"
will take you over and above the borders of expectation into
the ranks of spiritual grace, where shadows dance and nocturnal
threats plod their perilous course. |
