Reviews: Alkonost - Песни белой лилии

Full Length Album from Russian Folk Metal Band, Alkonost. Cover Art by Darius Alas.

1^st track, Река. This song is more Folk Rock, and the composition is so catchy. This album st rted with easy listening track. 2^nd track, Жемчужина. Cool ambient element, rather Drone, simple Drums, and Great Folk Guitar lick. This song more Metal. 3^rd track, Русалка. Atmospheric elemen, Electronic and Folk element on this song a combination of Modern and Traditional. Great Synth solo, Excellent Symphony and The Beauty and The Beast Vocals on the last part.

4^th track, Невеста лешего. From Slow to Metal. Cool Atmosphere and very Folk Guitar lick. 5^th track, Сражение с бездной. Great Angelic vocals and catchy Folk Fuitar lick. From slow to blasting. Listening this song like us in Fairyland. 6^th track, Ветер, вей!. Solid double pedal drums, Angelic voice, and Excellent Guitar lick. Mantap!!!

7^th track, Травница. It’s very Atmospheric! Atmospheric and Folk Guitar lick, a great combination. Like in a savannah enjoying Nature sounds and Angel sang. 8^th track, Хмель. Very Atmospheric Folk Metal song. With some Electronic element, it’s great combination between Modern and Traditional.

9^th track, Птица-печаль. Atmospheric, Melodic and Great Choir. Started with acoustic and ended with acoustic. 10^th track, Русалка (acoustic). Acoustic verison of 3^rd track. It’s hear more Beautiful and more Folk. Ah, it’s really like in Medieval era. 11^th track, Птица-Печаль (acoustic). This song is more Excellent than 9^th track. Classical, Folk and Angelic Voice. Ah, it Great anding song.

Acoustic part like 10^th and 11^th track are good for cooling down after listening Heavy tracks from 1^st until 9^th track. Simple Drums, Catchy Folk Guitar lick, Angelic Voice and very Atmosphere. I think this’s Great Atmospheric Folk Metal Album.

This Album spoiled us with Great Composition of Atmosphere, Electronic, Classical and Folk.
