Black Metal pioneers Ancient Rites long awaited new release "LAGUZ"
has been unleashed after an absence of almost 9 years! This long awaited
album reveals the band with all their majesty and epic heathen splendour.
Ancient Rites, for those who have not heard about this Belgian / Dutch
legends, are a band set to put a mark in metal music, no matter with their
creativity, ever-growing musical diversity as well as their strong and spontaneous bond with
their legions of fans across the metal universe!
"LAGUZ" marks a new chapter on bands history! As always the band sound
has been improved and embraced even more the long forgotten world theme, this
through dark/historical lyrics and the most extreme epic music.
Ancient Rites years of absence due to Gunther (founding singer and
mastermind of A.R.) sickness in no way diminished the bands legendary presence
in the metal world, with more than 3 decades of achieved victories and wisdom
the band rises once again victorious!
"LAGUZ" takes you into a journey through the times of ancient civilisations.
Testimonies of the rise and downfall of civilisations and individuals who come
to life again when the heart and mind open to echoes from the past. Without a
doubt "LAGUZ" is one of the most orchestral and philosophic albums of the
band to the date, evoking era’s buried by time and dust, still this new album
conserves the fierce quintessence of the Ancient Rites identity from it's
beginning to it's end. A piece that will and without a doubt, please older or
newer fans of the band!
Ancient Rites are back with one of their best pieces to the date, proof of
that are majestic tracks like "Carthago Delenda Est", "Under the Sign of
Lagoz", "Von Gott Entfernt (Bij Nacht en Ontij)", "Legio V Alaudae (Fifth
Larks Legion)" or "Frankenland" that are some of the best songs ever
forged by the band, this proves that the bands legacy is still being written
down and there are still allot more legendary tales to be told upon the metal
world by this band. I say... long live Ancient Rites!
With "LAGUZ" the band returns with one of their strongest and classical
albums to the date! Epic, ferocious and majestic, this is another Metal jewel
polished in all the right edges.
One of the most awaited returns for 2015 that in no way has disappointed the
fans! "LAGUZ" is a colossal monument of Metal extremity of Epic
proportions, uniting Ancient Rites hordes who stand again proudly as
One... marching into the eternity of times while other empires fall to oblivion!
