专辑介绍:
(圣兽奠定自己独特哥特交响风格标志专辑。)
我是听Therion乐队2000年发行的这张“Deggial”专辑才深深爱上这支乐队的,尽管“Vovin”带给乐迷巨大的冲击让媒体对它长时间津津乐道的评论还没休止,在我看来“Vovin”标志着Therion真正的转型,一种新式的现代交响歌剧金属真正让乐迷欢欣鼓舞,而“Deggial”则是Therion开创这种歌特金属风格完全成熟的标志,这是我寻觅太久的声音!!也是我期待太久的声音!我感受到了这种音乐带给我巨大的震撼,余音绕梁三月之说也不为过!当初得到这张专辑原盘的狂喜至今让我欣慰良久!
“Deggial”将金属扎实的力量和唯美细腻的古典音乐结合得天衣无缝,铿锵有力、缓慢厚重的金属吉他节奏,附和男女主唱壮阔悲怆的重唱,映衬简单肃穆的小提琴和气势恢宏的交响乐伴奏,Therion在专辑里展现他们绝妙的编曲技巧和独到的音乐才华,相比于“Vovin”,Therion在这张专辑里驾驭交响歌 剧金属的能力显得更炉火纯青。专辑里的第三首(Enter vril-ya)和第五首(The invincible)是我的最爱(本站提供过下载),壮阔悲情、精彩绝伦、百听不厌!我每次一打开电脑就要播放它们,让这种金属铁血交融的特质冲击我的耳膜!谁曾想过,他们以前是玩死亡金属的?!赶快珍藏两张吧,多么罕有的声音!世间少有的美妙乐章!

Comments from Christofer Johnsson:
"Earlier we had only used real strings and real choir. But on this album (which costed 115.000 DM to record and required 3 months in the studio) I had to budget to also include various brass and woodwind instruments as well as orchestral drums.
What was most developed on this album, in my own opinion, was the classic compositions. Guitarwise I went back a bit in time and used many riffs in the vein of the 80s heavy metal bands that I grew up with. We also tried to make the guitarsound a bit heavier and almost in a 80s way. The differences in the songs on this album compared to the earlier ones lie sometimes very easy hearable like in Via Nocturna or especially Flight Of The Lord Of Flies but mostly in the depth of the songs to be discovered first after a few times listening (like in Emerald Crown, where I used 70s influenced parts using blues scale, something I never used earlier on any album)."
