Anthriel: "The Pathway" [...] The high score given to this album is a reflection of the ultimate result: beautiful and telling cover art, music made with a passion and a production that leaves nothing wanting. One never grows tired of the story, the album easily listened to time and time over. [..] Metal Revolution |
 |
Kivimetsän Druidi: "Betrayal, Justice, Revenge" [...] After completely dissecting this album through the fantasy-driven artwork, gorgeous production, and symphonic composition, I must say that they have proven themselves once more. [..] Reflections Of Darkness |
 |
Maelström: "It Was Predestined" [...] ...and what might be the single greatest record cover in history. I mean, look at it. It's like the holy fucking grail of record covers. That guy has a sword in EACH FUCKING HAND! Do you have a sword in each hand right now? Didn't fucking think so. [..] Nerd Metal |
 |
Everon: "North"
|
|
[...] Production wise things are very
strong and the whole package is rounded out nicely by excellent artwork and
inlay booklet from Jan Yrlund of Darkgrove graphics.[...]
|
|
|
[...] Und selbst das sehr stimmige
und zugleich wunderschöne Coverartowk fügt sich absolut passend in den
Gesamtkontext des Albums ein.[...]
|
|
| [...] Aivan alkajaisiksi huomio
ohjautuu kuitenkin hillityn tyylikkääseen, Jan Yrlundin toteuttamaan kanteen.
Kuvataide asettaa ennakko-odotuksia musiikin suhteen, ja niihin kyetäänkin
vastaamaan.[...] Inferno |

When The Empire Falls
|
 |
Svartsot: "Ravnenes Saga"
|
 |
Ancient Creation: "Evolution Bound"
|
 |
3HM: "Three Headed Monster"
|
 |
Prestige: "Decades Of Decay"
|
 |
Airut: "Langennut"
|
 |
Týr: "Ragnarok"
|
 |
Hamka: "Unearth"
|
 |
Blind Stare: "Symphony Of..."
|
|
[...] For example the skulls, which are blind by the way (band name - *hinthint*), represent death and the violin (or is it a cello?) and the music papers fluttering through the air represent their orchestral touch. The woman stands for delusion I would say. So all in all - the artwork created by Jan Yrlund (Danse Macabre) fits very well.
|
|
|
Behalve de muziek is er ook nog het artwork. Dit is verzorgd door Jan Yrlund [...]. Nou, zijn grafische vormgevingen mogen er zijn. Kijk, en dat bedoel ik nu met het album is compleet: mooi artwork, goede songs, een strakke band die sterk speelt en een duidelijke productie. Top!
|
|
 |
Highlord: "Medusa's Coil"
|
|
I must finally mention the fantastic cover art, which despite not being terribly original is of a very high quality and just plain looks great.
|
|
|
The cd is a good produced cd, and the artwork is spectacular.
|
|
|
The first thought I had when receiving this album was the cover, god damned, what a cover. This have the be the nicest cover this year, + for you there Highlord for picking this one.
|
|
 |
Ancient Rites: "And the Hordes Stood as One..."
|
|
In addition to a wonderful setlist, the packaging is absolutely beautifully done. The art, done by guitarist Jan Yrlund, perfectly fits the album, with the torches, pentagramed portculllis, and goat-headed figure fill out this very metal scene.
|
|
 |
Let Me Dream: "Soulshine"
|
|
The layout, done by Yan Yrlund, really needs a compliment too. It fits perfectly with the Let Me Dream sound – powerful, a bit mysterious, but above all very beautiful and attractive!
|
|
 |
Encryption: "Secrecy"
|
|
The cover art reflects the second chapter, and was painstakingly created by Jan Yrlund. Recommendable for dark romantic souls.
|
|
 |
Red Wine: "Sueños y Locura"
|
|
Red Wine valgono certamente un ascolto, soprattutto da parte dei fans delle band citate durante la recensione: il cd oltretutto, oltre ad essere prodotto abbastanza bene, vanta un artwork davvero splendido.
|
|
 |
Danse Macabre: "Matters Of The Heart"
|
|
Alleszins een leuk tussendoortje in afwachting van hun volgende full-CD en met het prachtige boekje en hoesje, die weerom van de hand van Jan Yrlund zelf zijn, is het al een hebbedingetje om naar te kijken!
|
|
|
Doch wenn man sich die zwei beigefügten Videoclips (darunter ein Making Of) zum anfangs erwähnten Tanzflächenfüller zieht und das erneut superbe Coverartwork von Jan „Örrki“ Yrlund vor Augen hat, bleibt eigentlich nur eine „fan“-atische Sichtweise...
|
|
|
Da nützen auch die beiden Videotracks (Clip und "Making of" zu "Danse Macabre"), sowie das unglaublich coole Coverartwork (erneut von Gitarrist Jan Yrlund entworfen) nichts. Alle Neueinsteiger sollten sich allerdings aufmachen, um sich das geniale "Eva"-Album einzuverleiben - ein wahrer Klassiker im Gothic-Metal-Genre !
|
|
 |
Ancient Rites: "Dim Carcosa"
|
 |
Danse Macabre: "Eva" |
|
Die Krone bekommt die Scheibe von einem atemberaubend genialen und detailverliebten Frontcover-Artwork aufgesetzt. Es paßt in Vollendung zur Musik und ich habe selten ein schöneres gesehen. Für dieses hat sich Jan Yrlund höchstpersönlich ans Zeichenbrett gesetzt und beweist so ganz nebenbei neben seinem musikalischen auch noch sein großes malerisches Talent.
|
|
|
Nou maar hopen dat er nog een LP-versie uitkomt, want het schitterende artwork verdient eigenlijk een groter formaat.
|
|
| A very nice cover artwork, as you can see, is coming to complete the picture like the cover of a book waiting to be read. www.metal-guide.com |
