By ClarkKent

Sölicitör’s 2020 debut made quite the splash ’round these parts when 4.Öldeneye heaped glorious praise all over it. The five-piece out of Seattle has been quiet since then, releasing an EP in 2022 totaling two songs. Now they return for their sophomore release with a philosophy of more – more songs, more length, and even a couple more instruments (piano, synths). The members wanted to take a more hands-on approach with Enemy in Mirrors, which is why vocalist Amy Lee Carlson lent not only her pipes but also her artistic ability in designing the cover art. While Sölicitör retains their core sound, Enemy in Mirrors promises to be a more melodic journey. Not to worry, this is still your Holdenfather’s Sölicitör, albeit with a touch more nuance.

As Holdeneye described in his review of Spectral Devastation, Sölicitör’s style isn’t as straightforward as it appears on the surface. They find inspiration from ’80s speedy heavy acts like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, only this time around, they add more melodic elements reminiscent of Bloodletter. The resemblance to the latter is apparent early, as the combination of speed and melodic leads gets “Paralysis” going right out the gates. “Iron Wolves of War” and “We Who Remain” continue this streak while also including some catchy choruses that channel Sölicitör’s influences. When Carlson sings “Flee! Flee in horror!” on “Iron Wolves of War,” I couldn’t help but think of Dickinson’s iconic chorus on “Run to the Hills.” Then, on the chorus of “We Who Remain,” it sounds an awful lot like she’s singing “Defenders of the faith.”1 Sölicitör inject plenty of spirit into their speed, and the addition of melodic leads adds depth and a layer of infectiousness.

Enemy in Mirrors is not just speed, however. The record combines up-tempo velocity with mid-tempo grooves, pianos and synths that build suspense, and, of course, Carlson’s formidable voice to perform songs that prove Sölicitör to be effective storytellers. “Spellbound Mist” is the first to dabble in this more nuanced storytelling, beginning at a slower pace as Carlson croons and casts her spell over the listener. Then it takes a sudden turn on the back half towards furious shredding and thrash that gave me flashbacks of the twists and turns that Helms Deep took on Chasing the Dragon. The final two songs similarly impress in their ability to spin a yarn, beginning with synths that create ghostly atmospheres before melodic riffs and a thrumming bass add to the enchanting soundscape. With this patient buildup, Carlson eventually gets fists pumping with well-timed vocal entrances—singing “I am the deceiver” on “Black Magick (Part I)” and throwing out a creatively pronounced “Ooooh yeah!” on “The Devil’s Hand (Part II).” Both tracks end Enemy in Mirrors on a high note, showcasing Sölicitör’s maturity in songwriting.

I see a parallel between Sölicitör and Helms Deep in that both bands churned out longer sophomore albums than their debuts. In Sölicitör’s case, the length isn’t due to longer songs, but more of them. Unfortunately, this proves my lone gripe, as there’s a slight sag in quality in the back half, which keeps Enemy in Mirrors shy of the coveted 4.Ö. These songs aren’t lacking in the speed department, but they fail to utilize the melodic leads present on the rest of the record. “Fallen Angel” isn’t the longest cut, but it feels like it due to its more uniform structure and lack of hooks. “Crimson Battle Beast” begins with a classic speed intro, but the chorus comes off awkwardly and a bit silly. What these tunes do isn’t necessarily bad, but they sound more bland than the rest. Whether these two, plus the other weaker track, “Enemy in Mirrors,” work for you or not is likely going to be a key deciding factor in how much you enjoy the album.

Enemy in Mirrors is a welcome return after a five-year break, and it’s a promising direction for these talented musicians. If you enjoyed the debut, you’ll be happy to know Sölicitör doesn’t make any core shifts in their sound, and what they do add is a definite improvement. While we would certainly prefer beloved bands to release records more frequently, the most important thing is quality, and Sölicitör has quality in spades. If you like fun, if you like speedy and melodic metal, you owe it to yourself to check this out.

Nothing bad, I am just curious how someone would get case documents out of the court system for a tribunal I did back in 2014 - Since I assume those documents are "public" now.

If you were curious about my legal permission to breathe within this un-submerged Earthling solid angle,
it's that.

If any UK book botherers want to enlighten me, please do.
Thank you for exactly zero legal advice in advance.

I will not be relying on it at all. (And frankly am at non-zero chance of forgetting it soon after.)

It is my understanding I'll maintain the same status but lapsed proof.

It is my experience and expectation that I'll become undocumented, and therefore human scum [sic].

In her Justice Department office in Washington, DC, a vase holds the evidence of how busy the 48th #solicitor #general of the United States has been:

In it, a collection of quills
—an old-time souvenir the Supreme Court gives every advocate who argues there
—serves as a reminder of her nearly four years standing up for the government.

Despite this visibility and all the attention and praise she gets from people who follow the Supreme Court closely,
most Americans would be hard-pressed to name one solicitor general,
let alone explain what this government lawyer does.

It may be the most low-key influential job you’ve never heard of,
tasked with defending the United States and its interests before the high court
—the only presidentially appointed officer required to be “learned in the law.”

That qualification doesn’t exist for the attorney general or even the justices of the Supreme Court.

—an old-time souvenir the Supreme Court gives every advocate who argues there
—serves as a reminder of her nearly four years standing up for the government.

Despite this visibility and all the attention and praise she gets from people who follow the Supreme Court closely,
most Americans would be hard-pressed to name one solicitor general,
let alone explain what this government lawyer does.

It may be the most low-key influential job you’ve never heard of,
tasked with defending the United States and its interests before the high court
—the only presidentially appointed officer required to be “learned in the law.”

That qualification doesn’t exist for the attorney general or even the justices of the Supreme Court.

Oh hooray, door knocker season has begun in earnest. One or two a day all week. Our city has an ordinance that if you have a printed sign at the door saying no solicitors they cannot knock. Freshly printed and laminated sign has been posted!

We’ll see how well it works this year…

#help I just had my dog taken by guards/dog warden after a scuffle with a dog, clearly I'm devastated. As the next step involves going to court and present my case, I'm looking for a solicitor to assist thru the process. I just have not the faintest clue of where to start.
If you are or know a #solicitor, please DM me. Thanks!!!
