Spirits And August Light/Steal The Light CD - Import

Omnium Gatherum are without question one of the most inspiring modern melodic death metal groups around. The re-edition of their debut LP - 'Spirits And August Light', enriched with the EP 'Steal The Light', brings a powerful dose of death metal brutality coupled with beautiful and enchanting melodies. 'Spirits And August Light' was released after a long wait in April 2003. The album featured all the best elements of the group's style, forged throughout the years into perfection. Right from the opening track 'Writhen', the LP explodes with a flood of brutal guitar riffs and dazzling melodies, underlined with delicate keyboard synths. The result was truly astounding - songs such as 'Son's Thoughts', 'The Emptiness Of Spirit', 'The Perfumed Garden' and the ending track 'It Shines' introduced a whole new quality of melodic death metal, delivering music both powerful and full of melancholy.
