five years ago, Opera Ix briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “The Serpent’s Nemeton”. I am not a real Metal: Gothic music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Anphisbena’ really is amazing. This album has some very good songs like Many Moons Ago and The Serpent’s Nemeton. Oh yes, this album gets Array out of Array
This is probably my favorite song on the album. From the moment you listen to The Prophecy you’re hooked. Vocals of Opera Ix in In Hoc Signo Sanguinis really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. Immortal Chant is simply cool. I now have Scell Lem Duibh as one of my personal favorites. The Sixth Tower - This one makes me want to not only sing along. Battle Cry is a very catchy tune. Anphisbena is marvelous and different song. This is one of those tracks that should not be judged after the first hearing.
