Back to the good old Tuomas Saukkonen, already mastermind of Before the Dawn, one of his many projects (Dawn of Solace, Bonegrinder, Rajavyöhyke, Jumalhämärä, The Final Harvest, others). "Route" is the second chapter of the saga Black Sun Aeon, release particularly as divided into two CDs: the first "Talviaamu" which means winter morning and the second "Talviyö" that winter night. In focusing on the alternation of day / night in winter, play the music of this interesting work of dark death doom. Assisted by Mikko Heikkila (Sinamore), Janica Lonn (Lunar Path) and strong presence in the drafting of the lyrics, Sami Lopakka (Sentenced) and Sorvail Ville (Moonsorrow), Tuomas pulls out again a proof of height expectations, which will please fans of his band. Picking up the work begun last year with the debut "Darkness Walks Beside Me", ours are good nell'amalgamare sounds sad, dark and gothic, well orchestrated by melodic guitar lines and a good song writing in the first part of the CD, that a little 'hotter, able to paint warm polar landscapes, in which a small blanket of snow covers the green forests and where the sun touches the horizon so. "Frozen", "Sorrowsong" and "Wreath of Ice" feature sounds decadent, where the heavy component is always in mind (just listen to the title track for instance). The second part of the CD leaves as it were the most intimate part of the good Tuomas, to make room for more ice sounds, featuring the long night of the polar latitudes. Messe by Apart from the leaden atmosphere of the first seven tracks, our launch into songs a bit 'wilder, where, however, can still find space to voice the dualisms (growl-clean) and the typical delays of the two vocalists on the edge of doom, the combo Finnish. Honestly I liked most of the two parts the first, where among other things in "Dead Sun Aeon", also appears the angelic voice of Janice, and where the sound of our emotional is able to animate our most romantic spirit ...
