War Anthem Records, black vinyl, ltd. 300
Laio means lament in Galizian a title that perfectly defines the intention behind Balmog's fifth studio album. We are facing what is probably the most mature and elaborate album of the band's career, a work made from spontaneousness and viscerally but also from the experience acquired over years, in Laio you can feel the beating of a heart spitting blood and a scream from the depths of Balmog's soul, the virginity and violence of the first albums with the personality and eclecticism of EVE.
From a conceptual point of view, Laio is about how we can be content with being simple pieces of molded mud or how we can shine like the explosion of a dying star, about how we can escape the ways of divinity, ways that can be dark and manipulative. Laio is a cry for independence and rebellion against the divine.
Musically, we are faced with a work that walks between the entire tradition of rock and metal under the unstoppable blade of black metal. A path that wanders between Pink Floyd, Ved Buens Ende or Bathory and Mayhem, a path that will be familiar to many listeners but always with the unmistakable sign of Balmog marked with fire.
This fifth album is an album based on a balance between maturity and impetuousness, this fifth album is the quintessence of Balmog in its purest.
