Rakkauta Al Dente

So I am still not quite ready with my list of my six favorite albums from 2017... My problem is that I wanted to make it a top 5, but I end up with 6 and I can’t seem to cut it down further - so I am punting again... One of the more overlooked albums came from the Finnish band Circle. I have been aware of them for a little while, but I haven’t been following them closely. However, I did pick up Terminal, their latest album from 2017 - and to me it is a bubbler. The opening track, Rakkauta Al Dente, is a hypnotic song, with a riff building and building. The vocals start out screaming, but they also change. I love this song, and the album is strong - but not quite in my top ten for 2017.
