Date : Mar 24, 2011
Albatross was formed in 2007 by bassist Riju, to fuse his love for literature with heavy metal bands such as King Diamond. Dinner is You is the first studio output by the band.
The introductory track, The Great Plague of the 21st Century begins with a chilling background music, and a haunting recital of a nursery rhyme, setting a spine-tingling atmosphere and the mood for the tracks to come. Throughout the album, lots of spoken vocals are included, right from the first proper track, The Dining Table onwards, reminiscent of old-school shock rock bands such as Alice Cooper. However, this is just a prelude of the madness to come as the band breaks out into power metal riffs and Biposhree displays his vocal range, alternating between falsettos (in such instances King Diamond immediately come to mind) and a gruffer style of singing, shifting styles to suit the mood of the music.
The guitar solos included on songs such as The Dining Table are almost unexpected, with slow and thoughtful notes being pulled out from the strings, emphasising more on the emotions and the mood of the notes rather than just sheer speed and technicality that most power metal bands choose to utilise.
The various sound effects included such as the screams at the beginning of In the Court of Kuru certainly add on to the already creepy atmosphere of the music, with the constant presence of other elements such as the chanting or the chimes at the background of the songs.
