Free Music Notes for Minas Morgul
Free Music Review: enjoyable
Hit: 4 Stars
Yeah this is pretty cool stuff, can't wait to get more of their CD's to see what sounds they create. Dagor Bragolloch (sp) was my favorite song, but they are all pretty good, like Orthanc, Ungolianth, and passing of the gray company. Try it out of you like atmospheric sounds with a catchy tune to every song and screaming vocals.Free Music Review: Minas Morgul - The Dead City
Hit: 5 Stars
In the Lord of the Rings books, Minas Morgul was known as the Dead city, home of the Witch King of Agmna. Summoning has gone with more keyboards along with their traditional black metal and it sounds really evil. Silenius is a great musician all around and so is Protector (of all endless sleeps). Protector's vokills are much better (meaning worse) than Lugburz. The song Lugburz is absolutely great and why wasn't it on the Lugburz album? This was worth the $ and is a black/classical metal album.Free Music Review: Tedium
Hit: 3 Stars
Customer reviews are rather misleading in that everyone seems to throw the five star rating around without sincerity or thought. Minas Morgul is that rather dry album stuck in between two of Summoning's better albums: Lugburz and Dol Guldar, two of which are essential to a BM collection. While these two albums were a bit more lively and majestic, Minas is rather slow, repetitious, and uninspiring. While repetion is certainly not bad for creating ambience as Burzum, Darkthrone and Graveland have revealed, is is not all that engrossing when it is used soley to make long songs with weak themes. The flow of the album is inconsistent, built of agonizingly slow and underproduced tracks shoved in between squeeky clean instrumentals that don't really add anything to the album. The majority of these instrumentals amount to novelty and almost random compulsion (which would plague later Abigor albums). If you really like Summoning and you have the cash, I would pick this up, but for those who have never heard Summoning, I would listen to Lugburz (for that necro-BM sound) and Dol Goldar (for majestic keyboard soaked soundscapes).Free Music Review: Minas Morgul, Summoning
Hit: 5 Stars
What an incredible album. I mean this is what black metal is all about, pure hatred, sorrow, and suffering. Need I say more?Free Music Review: Summoning at their best
Hit: 5 Stars
They could take the guitars off of this album and still retain the beauty and feeling conveyed here. This is one of the best albums I have had the pleasure to hear. This is not black metal, this is ambient music in the style of Pazuzu with guitars. The concept and music of this band stand alone with no imitators. This is "black ambient medieval music" at its purest. Buy or forever be haunted by the knowledge that you missed out on the eargasm of a lifetime.
