Description
After four years of waiting, Acerus’ fourth studio album, The Caliginous
Serenade, is finally here: nine tracks of molten heavy metal from the mind of
Daniel Corchado (The Chasm, ex-Incantation). With more than 10 years writing
for Acerus and more than 30 years writing for metal bands, Corchado’s
experience has crystalized to a sharp point on this new album. His trademark
dense, layered approach is presented at its finest as soaring melodies,
masterful layering, mesmerizing polyphonic writing, and pure pounding epic
heavy combine to form a new masterpiece. All of this songwriting expertise is
combined with the return of the powerful voice of Esteban Julian Pena, Mario
Hernandez’s pounding drumming, and Edward Eschamilla’s shredding lead guitar
assault and comes together with a singular result: Acerus at their best.
Highly recommended for fans of Ironsword, The Chasm, Warlord, and Manilla Road.
