Agoraphobia is the first "real" ║ │ │║ piece of the album and it is definitely an epic ║ │ │║ song. The song starts with choral singing while ║ │ │║ the double bass thunders fat and Miguel Gonzßlez ║ │ │║ shows that he claims the right to place behind ║ │ │║ the microphone. A consistently successful track. ║ │ │║ The Chosen One is a very guitar-heavy piece and ║ │ │║ Daniel Martinez pulls out all the stops. Last ║ │ │║ Eternal Night offers us an extraordinary ║ │ │║ instrumental work again with sweeping melodies ║ │ │║ and a great chorus. For me, this is the best ║ │ │║ track of the album along with Agoraphobia. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Fury and Rage is a solid song without imposing ║ │ │║ largely into the overall work. A violin guides ║ │ │║ us throughout the track, but the song doesnÆt ║ │ │║ lack strength thanks to the good guitar work. My ║ │ │║ Love Still Remains is the only ballad of the ║ │ │║ album and it is completely convincing. Miguel ║ │ │║ brings a feeling over here really well. Abaddon ║ │ │║ proves itself as a "typical" power metal track ║ │ │║ and it is followed by Exodus, a little ║ │ │║ melancholic midtro. After this, Lost Souls comes ║ │ │║ back really strong. The groovy guitar riff and ║ │ │║ the battle between guitar and keyboard at the ║ │ │║ end of the song is epic. The last song, Nova Era ║ │ │║ is an exceptionally long song, running more than ║ │ │║ 11 minutes which is a successful conclusion of a ║ │ │║ consistently strong album. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ If you had never heard about Phoenix Rising, you ║ │ │║ should give them a chance no matter which genre ║ │ │║ you like the most. From this young band it is ║ │ │║ still a lot to expect. Amen! ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │╔═════════════════════╗ │ │║ Release Tracklist ║ │ │╚═════════════════════╩══════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ │ │ - cd1 [ ] │ │ - [ ] │ │ 01 - Tenebris Revelantur [02:17] │ │ 02 - Agoraphobia [11:21] │ │ 03 - The Chosen One [05:19] │ │ 04 - Last Eternal Night [06:06] │ │ 05 - Fury And Rage [05:49] │ │ 06 - My Love Still Remains [04:09] │ │ 07 - Abaddon [04:55] │ │ 08 - Exodus [06:26] │ │ 09 - Lost Souls [01:27] │ │ 10 - Nova Era [05:32] │ │ - [ ] │ │ - cd2 [ ] │ │ - [ ] │ │ 01 - Tenebris Revelantur [02:17] │ │ 02 - Agoraphobia [11:21] │ │ 03 - La Profecia [05:19] │ │ 04 - Noche Eterna [06:06] │ │ 05 - Rabia Y Dolor [05:49] │ │ 06 - El Cielo Y La Tierra [04:09] │ │ 07 - Abaddon [04:55] │ │ 08 - Exodo [06:26] │ │ 09 - Almas Errantes [01:27] │ │ 10 - Era de Luz [05:32] │ │ │ │ Total Length : [106:4] min │ │ │ │ │ │ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ ╔═════════════════════╗ │ │ ║ Greetings To: ║ │ │ ╚═════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ Too all people who contributes to make this │ │ archive of good music in a exceptional conditions │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │■ ■│ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
