Search - Bjorn Lynne :: Wolves of the Gods

A real pro

11/04/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Bjorn Lynne claims he only makes his CD albums for his personal satisfaction; you'd therefore expect them to be self-indulgent, whimsical, and full of flaws. The opposite is true. Bjorn manages to be exciting and original without ever alienating the listener. He has tunes in abundance - even the guitar lines are singable. 'Wolves' is probably his best album so far. A heady mixture of ambient moods, cinematic soundscapes, and heavy metal. If you like none of these styles, you still may love this album, for there is no simple way to describe Bjorn's music.The last two minutes of 'Shapechanger' alone are worth the price of the CD. Yet there are sixty-eight other minutes to be entranced by. Be transported."
