MediZen I don't know if this is the 4th or 2nd LP, but what matters here is that Avatar is ready to show a new standard for Metal, mixing sounds from Southern Metal, Industrial, Groove and other genders that we (metal-heads) will probably enjoy. Favorite track: Paint Me Red.

about

Black Waltz sees Avatar coming completely full circle, returning to a more aggressive form of heavy metal but incorporating the lessons they learned while jamming on big riffs with album number three. “We finally came to understand what a good groove is all about and what a great fit it was for our sound,”notes Eckerström.

Tracks like the appropriately titled “Ready for the Ride,” the rollicking “Let it Burn”(which dips into some delicious stonerifficness), the anthemic “Smells Like a Freakshow” (a modern day twist of Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie) and “Torn Apart” are supercharged with a dynamic range of artistic showmanship on a near cinematic scale and it’s all stitched together by a driving bottom end.
