Khors – Wisdom of Centuries

Releasedate: 17-09-2012; Label: Candlelight Records
By: Sabine van Gameren

Black Metal formation Khors formed in 2004. About a year later the guys from Ukraine released a debut album and they have been going strong since. This year their fifth full length album “Wisdom of Centuries” comes out.

Distortion works in your advance when you are a band like Khors, not all can make it work to the fullest but through the years it became something that the guys used to define their sound. Synths making it all fully hysterical, a good addition to the vicious riffing. The band takes you on the atmospherical route. Mystery, hysteria the feeling of being lost in sound is coming up. When the band brings their longest tracks you feel like you get the most out of them, their compositions are made in a way that you want to live into it and when they end too fast you might feel a bit disappointed. That is exactly their strongest point, the band makes you long for more, have a structure that builds onto a higher level and you know that the sky is the limit. Damn, “Wisdom of Centuries” is a strong release. Black Metal fans should absolutely look into it, their fifth release shows they are stronger than ever and ready to become a major.
