Eluveitie, Ategnatos

Eluveitie is one of those bands that never bores me and, despite of maintaining a somewhat constant and easily identifiable sound, also has enough variety and change to remain fresh album after album. Ategnatos is more of the same, but with a twist (which has come to describe almost all of their releases in the past years). The difference is this twist might just be the best one yet. 

Eluveitie, Evocation II

After the departure of almost half of the band and an Origins that was slightly less inspired than their previous albums, I was getting a bit worried about Eluveitie's future. However, if Evocation II proves anything, it's that there were less than zero reasons for me to worry, apparently these guys are some resourceful and determined artists.
