QUENTADHARKËN

I had the pleasure of meeting the members of Amarok and they are all very talented musicians. This is their fifth album and having listened to all the others prior to this one, this is their best effort yet.

Highlights:

2. The beginning of La Ultima Expedicion reminds me of Deep Purple's with their mix of keyboards and electric guitars. Vocals are dominant later in the song with some spatial sounds as well 8/10. 3. Encantamiento: string and wind instruments galore, along a nice melody. 7/10 5. La Espiral: feels like listening to Asturias or other classic guitar song. Later turns really folky. 8/10 13. Bocins de l'emporda: A mix of instruments (piano, guitar, and others), going along in a nice melody. Feels too overwhelming, with too many instrument mix 7/10. 14. Venus Antigua: Nice piano solo at the beginning, and a folky melody throughout the song with emphasis on the flute. 8/10.
