Arditi - Omne Ensis Impera (2008)
Arditi are among the most mesmerizing and hypnotic martial industrial bands in the genre. The talented Swedish duo dedicated their new and arguably greatest album "Omne Ensis Impera" to war, quoting: "We sing the praise of war. Not for the way it makes people die, but for the way it makes people come alive." Surely their bombastic and militant neoclassical style inspires and brings to life vivid images of war, nationalism, and violence in the minds of erudite listeners. Arditi, over the course of a brilliant discography have mastered the art of harnessing a dramatic nostalgia, epic in its proportions, skilled in its delivery, that transports the listener into the battle-ready lines marching boldly off to war. This is a martial industrial band that has captured the compelling essence and humanistic proclivity to war, nationalistic fervor, and violence more accurately then any 'war metal' band ever could. "Omne Ensis Impera" is an exceptional addition to the genre, but quality of this caliber can only be expected when considering Arditi's historic tendency toward virtual perfection.
