Since readers of Tolkien and fans of the movies know already that Sauron can’t be completely destroyed yet, the mystery here is his location if Adar never split him open. This snide remark that she seems just as bad as Sauron is enough to make her question everything she’s ever done, and this would be the most effective manipulation he could use this lie for. This accusation hits her a lot harder because of the conversation she had with her brother at the very beginning of the series, during which they spoke of how confusing it is facing the darkness and how disorienting it can be to tell what is good and what is bad. Another reason he might lie is that he sees Galadriel is emotionally charged to get answers on Sauron’s location and takes the opportunity to manipulate her.Īfter she describes how she plans to destroy all the Uruk, Adar implies that Galadriel is as bad as he is, saying, “It would seem I’m not the only Elf alive who has been transformed by darkness” and then compares her to Morgoth’s successor. Galadriel is obsessively hunting Sauron, so if Adar tells her that Sauron is dead, she may give up her search for him for a time. The first and most obvious reason Adar would lie about defeating Sauron is to protect him while he’s in hiding. The real mystery behind his confession, though, is whether Adar believes he successfully destroyed Sauron or if he is lying - and if he is lying, then what reason does he have to tell this to Galadriel? I killed Sauron," but viewers know this isn’t possible. In the most recent episode of the series, "Udûn," Adar ( Joseph Mawle) confesses to Galadriel ( Morfydd Clark) under interrogation that he "split him open. The story that is being told in Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power takes place thousands of years before the events of The Lord of the Rings, so audiences know that there are many years to go before Sauron’s true defeat. As Galadriel ( Cate Blanchett) tells us in The Fellowship of The Ring, it was "his will to dominate all life in Middle-earth," and the fact that he nearly succeeds a few times is reason enough to fear him. Tolkien's Sauron is one of the greatest villains of both literature and film. But that is not the way I work so I ploughed all the way through hoping there was going to be something to get my teeth into later in the album, but there isn’t.Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for Episode 6 of The Rings of Power. It is incredibly basic, and the result is that the listener soon starts to wonder just how long this is (43 minutes), and whether it would be okay to skip the rest of the tracks. Aymar has a good voice, but the material just is not here, and while at a push I may say there are some small elements of Angra on this release, there is little to get excited about. There is none of the complexity needed for prog metal, and none of the thrust and attack of power metal, while introductions often go on for way too long. Instead of progressive power metal what we have here is NWOBHM to which we have had the odd local wind instrument added. The press release says “Progressive Power Metal meet up with Persian folklore in a way, as if there were never two different origins, ” which immediately got me intrigued as I am always interested in forms of music coming from non-Western backgrounds so I put it on and sat back waiting to be impressed. However, Mahyar Dean (guitars, bass) and Ramin Rahimi (drums) have been joined by singer Tim Aymar (Pharaoh) and just released their fourth full length. Iranian act Angband released their debut ‘Rising From Apadana’ back in 2008, but since their third album, 2012’ ‘Saved From The Truth’ there has been little activity.
