REVIEW ALLTHINGSMETAL This is, for the most part, a one man project but
it doesn't have that standard one man project sound... it's really good.
As self described, "fantasy black metal" seems to fit appropriately.
All the lyrics are in Italian and as the bio reads, the songs are about
Sicily. I'll try to remain non biased but that's big points for me.
The two and a half minute intro to track one is incredible as is the intro to track three. The intros are just brilliant. The one problem I did have with this near twenty five minute CD is that there's not a lot of variety in way of the guitar melody. The riffs seem to repeat themselves from time to time. It's there but it's not in your face. Track five has to be my favorite for two reasons... first it stands out as original from the other songs but also because it sounds like something Immortal would have recorded. It's a great song. Adranor's throaty vocals actually remind me a lot of Abbath's. Overall I really liked listening to Leggenda and will probably be listening to it rather often. . Shava
