Bagatur – Сказание за древнобългарското величие (2010)

October 4, 2024

A set of very interesting songs led by a prominant synthesizer which dominates the mix and the songwriting in general. Unfortunately, the record is let down by fairly underwhelming whispered vocals (think post-prison Varg but twenty times worse) which really detract from the overall atmosphere. I’m sure there’s plenty of people out there who like it, but personally I think this would have been better with fully clean vocals throughout (of which there are some) or even as an instrumental project. To each their own, I guess.
