Black Veil Of Light - World of Light and Magic (2011)



/Neoclassical, Dark wave, Alternative, Dark pop, Martial industrial, New Age/

Comment
: there are up 8 tracks which charateristics are deeply into dark synth progressions undulating between symphonic, neoclassical and at times even New Age-alike soundscapes. The issue can be considered as an instance of characterizing the incessant fight between dark matter and...even a more dark-tinged substance. It is a distinguished drift between pensive and melancholic moods. If to check out a part of of the titles (Why We Must Die; The End Of Our Time; Post Apocalyptic; After The Calm Stillness) you can figure out that the term "post" is pertaining to the main topic. In a word, the outlet is charming and uncompromising simultaneously, inspite being 100% instrumental by the way. BVOL comes out of Slovakia starting with his doings in 2009 and having been very active since (approximately 10 albums are out). Though all the tracks are felicitous the last notch is truly outstanding through hypnotic shifts between darkwave, and shoegaze mixed high-registered layered and catchy cadences below it.
