Antiquus

About Me

With “Eleutheria” Antiquus offer an audacious release, daring to break the boundaries of nowadays mostly unexciting metal scene. It’s an album that will slowly but constantly grow on the listeners, building and strengthening itself piece by piece, song after song. It’s an exciting experience for all fans of true heavy metal, Slough Feg, Manilla Road, but also a pleasant discover for those who love the emotions of progressive metal, where the lyrics, the music, the atmospheres are all merged into one musical experience.

"...I'm so stoked with this album I demanded we do a story on them and I put it in my top 15 of 2006. Awesome stuff!..." Adrian Bromely, Unrestrained! Magazine, Issue #33
