Arcturus - Arcturian (2015) [2CD Limited Edition]

Arcturus - Arcturian (2015) [2CD Limited Edition]
EAC Rip | FLAC (image+.cue+log) - 641 MB | MP3 CBR 320 kbps (LAME 3.93) - 211 MB | Covers - 130 MB
Genre: Avant-garde Metal | RAR 3% Rec. | Label: Prophecy Productions (PRO 175 LU)

Arcturus took a decade off of creating studio albums after Sideshow Symphonies and have returned with this, a pretty solid release which, though it lacks any fully-fledged epics (with all the song lengths at less than six minutes), still offers a confection of progressive-minded metal with symphonic and black metal touches, with the inclusion of an actual string section really allowing them to bring their symphonic aspect to the fore. Sebastian Grouchot guests on violin and adds a nicely melancholic touch to pieces such as "Crashland".
Like the preceding Sideshow Symphonies, this does not feel like as striking and groundbreaking a release as any of their first three studio albums (up to and including the classic Sham Mirrors). Still, if you loved those you will probably enjoy this, and even if other musicians have caught up with the far-out territory of Arcturus, Arcturian is still a nicely polished example of this sort of black-about-the-edges progressive metal.
