01. Sed
02. Dulce Mal
03. Medio Orient

09. Un Poco Mas Cerca Del Cielo

I've done many reviews in the past concerning the current Spanish metal scene and if my memory doesn't betray me, only Red Wine were singing in their native language… From now on you should add Abyss to this category…

This power metal sextet is a very difficult case for me… They do prefer their compositions lengthy (with many rhythm changes though) but in the end of every song, the listener don't remember a single note… Hence the fact that after a couple of tunes, they're experimenting with more proggy landscapes and the whole result sounds rather confusing... The keyboard enrichment possibly will sound convincing for you but every good attempt of the band is ruined by their choice to 'dress' the songs with their native language.

You see, I belong to those people which believe that the English language is the only appropriate for heavy metal music and besides a couple of exceptions, I tend to keep distance from everything that comes with a different aspect…

To sum the things up, if you think that the Spanish language won't cause you any kind of problem and you belong to the fellowship of the current power metal (with prog dashes) scene, then enter at your own risk…
