Diabolus Arcanium – Path of Ascension

Info

Bands: Diabolus Arcanium
Labels: Transcending Obscurity Records
Release Formats: CD
Release Years: 2015
Review Date: May 1, 2017

“Path of Ascension” is the debut album of Diabolus Arcanium, a symphonic Black Metal band from India. They definitely have listened to the Scandinavian mid/late 1990s symphonic and melodic Black Metal albums (Dimmu Borgir for example). Imagine that and think of Black Metal version of Therion during “Vovin”. Yes, it’s quite heroic and epic, but drop the keyboard a bit. Find the right balance and this could be entertaining. (Ricardo)
