User Album Review
If there was ever a case for Dagoba to warrant widespread attention in the extreme metal scene, it'd be with Black Nova, the French industrial metal quartet's seventh record. That's a strange statement to make, two decades into the band's career, but Dagoba's latest album is undeniably their best, even if that isn't saying much. Wait, wait, wait! This is a positive review, I promise. Dagoba's discography is full of likable tunes, but aside from the odd song or two, their catalog has been hampered by filler and a general unevenness that has continually barred the band from genuine greatness. Not anymore: From start to finish, Black Nova is a tightly-written and consistently gripping package that stands out from the band's prior works while remaining impressively on-brand.
It might not be a modern classic, but Black Nova is still among the most thoroughly entertaining industrial metal gauntlets of the last few years. If that's the harshest summary I can give, then that's a pretty fantastic sign. Check it out. Score: 8/10. -- Reviewed by metalinjection.net.
