![]() ![]() Even if the style of some songs here isn’t overly aligned with my interests, the central vocal performances are consistently compelling. Another song on which strings feature most prominently is “Under The Burning Skies”, a delicate yet dramatic song with a richly evocative vocal performance from Bonny.Ī lot of Ad Infinitum’s potential as a band does lie in having a vocalist as talented and charismatic as Bonny, who has the kind of voice that could make a reading of the phone book an engaging experience, and whose rich and soulful tones are equally suited to dramatic metal songs as they are full-blown pop balladry. Well, as much as they’ve changed since Monarchy, the band aren’t unrecognizable here there are a couple of songs here that have a similar feel to most of those on the debut, most notably “The Serpent’s Downfall” the strings dancing around the measured riffs, the acoustic guitars in the verses and Bonny’s wide-ranging vocals, hitting notes both tender and forceful, all come together delightfully on a track that does slightly tease at what could have been for the record as whole. I must confess some disappointment at having finally discovered a really promising new symphonic metal band for the first time in years, only to see them swiftly shift away from the sound that drew me to them however, reviewing Downfall as the album it is rather than the one I’d like it to be, how does it stack up? Quite a bit of that comes from the sidelining of the symphonics, which only meaningfully contribute to about half the songs in their place, electronics have become a more prominent feature. In 2023, the trends from Legacy have been further cemented on Chapter III: Downfall the last vestiges of power metal are effectively gone, and a relatively lazy ‘well, they’re both metal and poppy’ comparison on my part to Amaranthe in my review of Legacy has been actualized by multiple songs here, especially the “Drop Dead Cynical”-esque “Upside Down”. By the time Chapter II: Legacy arrived in 2021, these elements had each diminished to a degree, with a more pop-oriented current running through several songs. The sound of Chapter I: Monarchy that I find so compelling is a symphonic metal approach with power metal leanings, along with a very particular regal grandeur that really elevated it over most of the symphonic metal scene. In preparation for this album’s release, I went back to review the band’s debut last month, and voiced the appreciation I’ve had for it since discovering it in 2020. However, even without any line-up shake-ups, Ad Infinitum have also changed in less superficial ways than these in the past 3 years. Despite the relatively short window of time between these albums, Ad Infinitum have changed the plaguebearer masks have been ditched by the instrumentalists in the band, who give off a more collaborative image in the new record’s artwork compared with the Bonny-centric cover of the debut, and the lyrical focus has shifted from the Renaissance era to Ancient Egypt. Swiss symph-metallers Ad Infinitum have been rather busy since founder Melissa Bonny successfully crowdfunded the recording of their debut album, Chapter I: Monarchy just over 18 months later, Chapter II: Legacy arrived, and there’s been a similar interval between that record’s release and that of the newest entry to their discography, Chapter III: Downfall. ![]() The Monarchy has fallen, but this album won’t be the Downfall of Ad Infinitum’s nascent Legacy.
