　　Kydos is an album about the consequences of warfare and the ideology behind heroism.
　　There’s no glorification or apology about war here. No pomposity over the issue of death and killing, no venomous melancholy for times of disaster and murder. It’s a rectification on the historic debacle behind our games of death. Our own, or the one that come from the others.
　　Appeals to live drums and some samplers, fortunately not speeches except from an off voice narrating the massacre of Nankin in the song “Fields of honour”. There’s a couple of songs that uses common elements with Sol invictus and the band musical style is clearly influenced from LJDLP. Ambient alike with some few neo-folk references.
　　The coldness and stillness from each piece evocates not the battlefield but endless camps of graves and frigid marbled stones, the futility behind the effort of the hero and at the same time its contradictory goal.
　　Patrick Leagas collaborates by singing the song “Icarus” and “Final age of heroism” with his arch known dismal and serious voice followed by guitars and live drums and it is actually a pretty good result! Pretty neo-folky though.
　　Tony Wakeford/Ian Read remakes the lyric for Heldentag which is an excellent song and it’s probably the more war related piece of the album. The intensity that comes from a remembrance of times made of men of steel and fields of rape.
　　The album ends with a bonus track. After all is said and done in the very end there is only the big void of blackness for the hero and for his victim. And the promised and venerated glory that comes from heaven or the Valhalla is nothing but a dream that slowly disappears from the memory of men.
　　Prost!
