The cover to 'Matador' is how I see their music play
A scull without body, soul and feeling staring dead like hay
They have a sound that vampires will love any day
But their music just runs by and I feel that nothing stay
The music can be seen as neither fast nor slow
Perhaps that's why this Zoroaster album doesn't grow
They can't entrap their listeners and make them bow
'Matador' feels pretty much like an album that blow
But then there's also good stuff with these nine tracks
Though it on surface may seem like they bang and tacks
There are noises strange and the mixing quality lacks
I think this album might make the hair rise on your backs
The album doesn't really get anywhere the way it is
The music is OK but I feel that there's something I miss
Mr Fiore tank and groan like a ghost and almost hiss
And the album never really gives that lovely bliss
Instruments lacks some sort of idea in how they go
But as you play it the album actually starts to grow
There's mostly sounds and melodies are way to slow
I think production-wise the album say both yes and no
So, what's actually good when it comes to this prediction?
Well, I've been searching for a while to give glorification
Nothing in particular makes the big scores come as gratification
But there are elements all around that gives it ratification
I can't really say 'Matador' has something extra great
So below the validation grades is not their fate
To fans of slower death this is something of highest rate
But not to you who likes the melodic metal state
All in all I like this album more than I hate its sound
But I think the album lacks that little extra to bound
It's an album that could make you scream all around
But I think it has qualities that works on death metal ground
'Matador' takes the prophecies of Zoroaster to another level
They tease the bull and makes it run in cirkles and gore the air
But the in the end, the 'Matador' and bull ties the game.
HHHHHHH
