'Ategnatos' follows a decidedly darker, monumental tone that suits the band very well. Of course, Eluveitie have long found their very own trademark sound, a sonic adventure often copied but never overcome. With 'Ategnatos', the dedicated nine-piece not only worked with a real string quartet; they also undertook a holistic upgrade resulting in some of the most catchy, most aggressive and most epic tunes the Swiss metal nobility has ever offered. This version features three bonus tracks.
