To simply call this a masterpiece would be an understatement! I've heard few albums like "Nero" — CLOSTERKELLER's latest work is simply magnificent! One could draw an analogy with the later output of THEATRE OF TRAGEDY. Every composition is unique, unlike any other on the record. The vocals of Anja Orthodox are superb. They mesmerize. The music features Eastern motifs in which she demonstrates exquisite command of her voice. Beautiful electronic interludes — in one song you can even hear the sound of the ocean. A gorgeous gothic atmosphere. Everything is done professionally. Throughout the entire disc, you simply revel in the music...
