Rome - S/D, C or D

Oddly enough, I couldn't find any discussion of this project. Is Jérôme Reuter the new Leonard Cohen/Nick Cave or a just another history-obsessed neofolk aestheticist? Does their productivity (nine albums in six years) drown the gems in filler? What's better, singer-songwriter folk ballads Rome or samples-and-soundscapes martial Rome? Does the pervasive anarcho-leftist revolutionary ideology increase or decrease his appeal? Favourite albums?

New record, after the Spanish civil war and Resistance-era France, another take on a historic conflict from a vaguely anarchist/leftist but mostly melancholic point of view, this time the Bush Wars in Rhodesia. 2 CD's plus a coffee table book for 130 euro looks steep but I guess that's how you do it in the post-Spotify era.

I keep repping for this band, it's great music.
