Material Sanctuary

Material Sanctuary
(Massacre Records - 1996)


The quartet Veni Domine offer some epic doom / power metal á la Crimson Glory and Candlemass. Majestic hymns like the opener The Meeting isn't the only thing the band can strike the listener with. Lyrically Material Sanc­tuary is a trip through medieval myths and sagas. Vocally Veni Domine is somewhere between David de Feis (Virgin Steele) and Geoff Tate of Queensrÿche and musically they present progressive up-tempo riffs with rhythm and harmonies. Doomy sounds with a touch of medieval. I never heard this kind of metal before and I have to confess that I missed their debut Fall Babylon Fall...

Fall Babylon Fall

Fall Babylon Fall
(Massacre Records - 1992/1996)


Re-release of the debut album of the Swedish epic prog power metal band Veni Domine. Every power metal fan who like an epic touch have to have this CD! Even if the production can't stand nowadays standards.
