Review to Kull debut album "Exile"

Who are Kull? Kull are a Epic Symphonic Black Metal band from UK. There are four members of Bal-Sagoth in there (which shows, a lot), and the guitarist/composer of Tarkan, who is now vocals in Kull.
Kull are releasing their debut album Exile on the 30th of April, through Black Lion Records.
The album is quite long, has 11 tracks.
There is definitely a dark atmosphere on Exile, but the sound itself is more Epic and Symphonic than properly Black Metal. The voice is the most Black Metal element on it.
There are all those sweet keyboard sounds of our imaginary, that take us into the depths of some obscure journey. Good soundtrack for Elric of Melniboné and others of the sort.
In fact, this was originally planned to be the 7th album of Bal-Sagoth, so you see, if you like Bal-Sagoth, this is great for you. If you are into Epic soundtracks, as well.
If you are into traditional Black Metal, maybe not. However, Lachryma Christi always suggests to everyone to hear the albums for themselves. Because people might still like a certain thing even if it is not very much their cup of tea.
Either way, it is entertaining. And the cover is magnificent.
