"Desde el Silencio" is the second album of the spanish band Wurdalak that comes along after its previous disc "La Llamada". A more elaborated and mature work that from the entrails of traditional heavy metal approaches new directions towards vanguardist and progressive sounds. Each track is a surprising journey, either they take us to their personal epic world with subtle and mysterious atmospheres, or to submerge us in heartrendering spheres of moving lyricism. The voice of MªJose Romero invites to it, because is complex, luminous, intense, vibrant... This vocalist dynamite the climax until elevating us to delightful emotions. Its adaptation coming from the classic field to heavy metal is really commendable, although she is still more comfortable in mid-tempos and high registries.

The musical production of the album is exceptional. The rythmical section sounds aggressive, clean, powerful.... The treatment of keyboard and voice also is outstanding, cause far from being relegated to the rythmical maze they receive high protagonism, showing the virtues of these talented musicians. Similarly it emphasizes the sound of guitars, where the group is faithful to a classic metal concept, with powerful riffs, rushing guitar boths, and baroque arrangements in pure Helloween style.

An atmospheric Intro made by Helder de los Santos with an elegant taste to Alan Parson initiates the disc. Tremendously evocative and enigmatic. Next they delight us with "Atormentado" a song of progressive structure with sharp rythmical guitars - they slightly remember Conception -. "Nunca Moriras" begins with an Elegy sounding intro, pompous guitars and a noticeable protagonism of the keyboard. Very melodic, intense and heartrendering. It is perhaps next to "Camino en una sola direccion" the best structured song.

"Mil Voces" is a speedy metal hit where the brilliants riffs of guitar evoke the best Rainbow epoca. We also should emphasize the collaboration of "El Gamba", singer from Metal Mareny. His interesting voice allows a vibrant duel between both vocalists. In this cut they make an instrumental interlude that relaxes the metal fervor by suggestive orchestal arrangements. "Nyneve" is a midtempo song where the luminous voice of Mª Jose take us to a wonderful epic story. They sound like the last celtic albums made by Richi Blackmore. "No hay adios" is his following cut where they return to flirtear with symphonic rock. The rythmical section - Ignacio Garcis bass player and Rubén Muñoz drummer- is powerful and complex.

"Camino en una sola direccion" is the masterpiece of the disc. begins with an intro with reminiscences to "Fear the dark", then flies to a gothic atmosphere with certain flavor to Evanescence, to finalize with a hard rock chorus with tenuous celtic shades. The song is in continuous crescendo, looking for a goal, a direction... musical narrative tension very good acomplished that harmonically goes through the existencial desire of yearnings and dreams that characterize the letters of the band. They finalize the disc with "Hacia a ti" that connects with the enigmatic Intro made by Helder de los Santos, sealing therefore a perfect circle. In conclusion, Wurdalak has obtained a disc of exceptional quality where they reveal their skills in fusing different genres with total coherence, marking a way to make heavy metal absolutely original.
