Description/Reviews
Instead of going all out with their metal, Veni Domine anno 2014 are more reflective and atmospheric, over wide swathes of the album reducing the heaviness at times dramatically compared to previous efforts, to the point that some of the more progressive “outbursts” almost seem as foreign objects within the dense atmosphere of “In Memoriam”, for example, which has this calm emotional intensity that belies the piano and cello used. This is not to say that the Swedes have gone softie on us, “Farewell”, for example, offers us a mix of prog and doom (at somewhat reduced heaviness once more), with Ohlsson sounding like Khan sometimes on this one, which works very well with the character of the song.
