Description/Reviews
“Shuddering At Calm Seas” is an example of how diverse their sound can be while maintaining the distinguishable I, Omega sound. This track features a beautiful female vocal accompaniment and even has a calm jazz-like section that seamlessly breaks back into aggressive metal.
“Suffer Now And Live” has a much darker sound. The vocals and instrumental are crushing and aggressive from the first second and flow perfectly into a catchy, soaring chorus.
“Half Way Home” is the track I have stuck in my head most frequently. Listen to it once and you’ll understand why. Everything about this track is perfect.
“The Rustling” is an instrumental. I have only one word: Epic.
If I had to pick one favorite track, it would probably be “Shaking Hands With Sinatra.” Breakneck speeds, face melting guitars, blazing drums, and pure adrenaline-filled vocals. The aggression is balanced out with catchy and upbeat riffs, group vocals, and intoxicating melodies.
“En Longa Somnum” is the perfect outro track for the perfect album. It has a more haunting feel and an eerie sound with a driving rhythm that slowly builds in intensity. This track is a maelstrom of emotions- slow and calm one second then fast paced the next- ultimately winding down to slow, calm, clean guitars
