AMG Review of The Power Cosmic
Steve Huey
All Music GuideOn The Power Cosmic, their first album to be released domestically in the U.S. since their recording career began in 1995, English death-metallers Bal Sagoth blend the cruel symphonic elegance of Scandinavian black metal with fantasy/sci-fi-obsessed lyrics and the chilling Gothic overtones of countrymen Cradle of Filth. It all makes for a pretty original sound within the group's chosen genre, and a fine entry point for American audiences.
