In Aeternum - Dawn of a New Aeon (2005)

   In Aeternum just had the same "lifeline" like all other similar bands who were formed in the early '90s but stayed "silent" for a long time to activete themselves after.
   Their music didn't change much since their debut, they kept playing the same blasphemous black/death metal that on their debut EP "And Darkness Came"also could be heard. The difference that could tell that they became experienced musicians with the time that has passed, could be noticed in the incresed complexity of their songs. Speed changed became more frequent and wild hammerings having absolute rule on "Dawn of a New Aeon" compared to their eariest records. The sound also changed into a clear and therefore more effective direction. But the signs that are suspecting that the band discovered the importance of the sound, could be noticed on this album the first time. They seemed to stay strictly at the traditional sound of old school Swedish death metal. This conservation took off a lot from the effectiveness of their songs, no matter how aggressive or heavy they used to be. Except that In Aeternum strictly kept the quality on the same level too, so the none of their records can disapppont the fans of black/death metal.
