Análisis (en inglés) - :
There's not much to be said about {^Dark Ages} that hasn't been said about {$Max Cavalera}'s several other masterworks to date. Whether you're talking about his masterworks with {$Sepultura} ({^Chaos A.D.} and {^Roots}) or {$Soulfly} ({^Soulfly} and {^Prophecy}), or even his one-off {$Nailbomb} album ({^Point Blank}), the praise often seems the same: bloody-meat raw production, subtly dynamic songwriting, the obligatory ethnic experimentation, an in-your-face delivery, varyingly passionate conception, and a ceaseless emphasis on rage and revolution. Sure, his {$Soulfly} catalog has its share of miscues -- namely {^Primitive} and {^III}, which were both spotty -- but for the most part, {$Cavalera} rarely ceases to deliver fascinating music, even at this distant point practically 20 years into his career. {^Dark Ages} is no exception in this regard. The 15-song album never does hit a lull. It arcs slightly, kicking off with a punch to the face and peaking with {&"Molotov,"} {&"Frontlines,"} and {&"Innerspirit"} before drifting into edgier waters of experimentation that ultimately recede with the album closer, the ten-minute instrumental {&"Soulfly V."} Some would say that {^Dark Ages} is one of the least "Brazilian" of {$Cavalera}'s {$Soulfly} albums to date (an unfair metric that pointlessly gets dragged out every time he releases a new album), and sure, it certainly does seem more straightforwardly {\metal} than some of his previous albums. Still, it's far from straight {\metal}. Rather, it's {\alternative metal} in the proper, welcome sense of the term. It's rare to encounter such a surefooted {\metal} album that plays so well -- one that is fresh-sounding without being forced to be, and one that comes from a veteran act yet still seems vital, if not downright unique. This has come to be expected from {$Cavalera}, however. So is it just another {$Soulfly} album, then? Not exactly. It actually might the best one yet, if only because it takes the work of the past albums one step further. For instance, the self-titled {^Soulfly} album from 1998 was a monster in its day -- a really exciting album to hear, and a trendsetter to boot. Relative to {^Dark Ages}, though, it seems meager. So at this point, five albums and seven years into the {$Soulfly} canon, you have to wonder how much closer {$Cavalera} can tread toward perfection. He's damn close here, for sure. Remember that, because after all these years of fascinating music and few miscues, it's all too easy to take {$Cavalera} for granted. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
