Symphony of Good and Evil

Hevilan "Symphony of Good and Evil" is an album that contains more than it's share of battering rhythms and finely honed, razor-edged riffing, the vocal acrobatics of Alex Pasqualle are solely in the spotlight on compelling symphonies of sludgy, operatic metal like the monstrous leadoff cut, "Dark Paradise" and the chillingly thunderous "Great battle". When HEVILAN get going, though, they really go at it, like powerful "Rebellion of the saints", speed hammer "Devil within part I & II" or the excellent ballad "Always in my dreams", where the Brazilians prove that they don't have to hide behind anybody.
