Reviews ANOREXIA NERVOSA - REDEMPTION PROCESS - LISTENABLE
It is not like these French metallers were doing much differently previously, so the album's title might be aimed at the listener or even describe the band's signing to Listenable Records. All kidding aside, Anorexia Nervosa is a symph/synth band that could have inhabited the same circles as Dark Funeral, but given the orchestral backdrop takes a turn for Cradle Of Filth instead. The vocals are anguished and hurtful, a couple of instances of funny wailing notwithstanding, and the lyrics switch languages here and there. Antiferno and Codex-Veritas are blazing tunes only damaged by the synthesizers. Redemption Process is a diverse album that may or may not appeal to black metal fans. Read above and decide accordingly. - Ali "The Metallian"
