Mantiis by Obsidian Kingdom
Taking part in the long-lived tradition of rock operas – from David Bowie to King Diamond –, “Mantiis” embarks the listener in an eerie musical trip, noted for the coherent exploration of a wide range of styles and emotions. The band spares no sound resources in order to portray the most varied scenes, from quiet despair to utter violence; meaning a bizarre step outside the boundaries of extreme music.
