Agathodaimon - Serpent's Embrace album cover

Agathodaimon come from Germany and they've created a cult name in the underground scene from their very first demos.
Their music is modern Metal , with lots of Black Metal  elements, Death Metal drumming and Heavy Metal riffs. Agathodaimon is a very good band with a great technique and lots of emotions coming out from their music. This album reminds me a lot of how Nightfall used to play. Of course I don't want to make any comparisons.
Many folk parts , traditional instruments ,clean vocals but still chaotically fast parts with Death vocals. This is a very good album but not for any Black Metal fans I suppose.
Best song of this album, in my opinion, is the first song Cellos For The Insatiable.
I think Nocte Obducta (the second band of Sathonis - check out Szwarzmetall) is better than Agathodaimon.
Listen to this album but don't expect any pure Black Metal.
