[Recap] February 2011

It’s that busy time of year. Unfortunately, I’m talking about midterm cram-time, not blogging season. In fact, that period from February 5 to 21 where there are zero posts… Yeah, that says it all. I did manage to catch up on a few reviews at the end, though I still have some catching up to do. Not too much this month, just the following:

• Album of the Month
• Other really good albums
• Other albums…
• My personal favorites of the month

I only got around to reviewing five albums this month; I too am disappointed in myself. Three of these five are great (good ratio!), and one of those three is just a tad better. February’s Album of the Month is:

Album of the Month: Death & Legacy (Serenity)

Serenity – Death & Legacy: Review

The Austrian symphonic progressive power metal band Serenity is relatively new to the scene. They released their third full-length album on February 25 entitled Death & Legacy. It is a very welcome release to the metal scene, meeting the high expectations they had set for themselves with their releases up to this point. Though it is a slight step down from the predecessor, Fallen Sanctuary, it is still a great album to say the least.
