About
Sagas is Equilibrium's second full-length album, released on June 27, 2008. All lyrics were written by Helge Stang and all music composed by René Berthiaume. It is an 80 minute epic that display several different genres. Some songs are intense battle metal with thick guitars and an angry black metal attitude. Others have a lot of grand symphonic elements. A few combine thrash guitars with a movie soundtrack feel. There are also traditional folk metal passages that's a bit mellower with flutes and instruments of that ilk. The album has a lot of ebbs and flows. Fast and aggressive songs are tempered by slower sections or mellow instrumentals. Helge Stang is Equilibrium's vocalist, with a raspy style more in the vein of black or death metal. The lyrics on the CD are all in the band's native German.
