Macabre Omen’s “The Ancient Returns” is one of those surprising albums where you can feel the devotion of the musicians every second. Whether they let a storm rise or walk with their heads held high, Macabre Omen have found a very successful mixture. What is great above all, is that despite the opulent musical orientation of the production, no emphasis was placed on high polish, but the songs could completely unfold their charm due to the raw sound – and take the center stage. Strong, exciting and with a clear risk of addiction!
