Principe Valiente – In This Light (Album – Digital/CD/Vinyl – Metropolis Records)
Two years after their masterful opus “Barricades”, Swedish band Principe Valiente returns with their fifth full-length album. Fernando Honorato and Jimmy Ottosson stay true to the core elements of their signature Dream-Pop sound, but “In this Light” has a notably more Ethereal and flowing quality. Most of the tracks are subtle, building steadily towards powerful climaxes. A few songs have a harder, darker edge, which personally stand out to me. While this album is filled with many beautiful moments, “Barricades” still holds the crown as their magnum opus in my opinion. (Rate:8).

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
