Wow! This is all I can say after listening to new Dagorlath record! This band is hailing from Spain and I must admit that I am soo happy having listened to this one, because I love this record. Dagorlath celebrates tenth anniversary of the band and they released their best songs re-recorded. There are eight songs on this one. The music of Dagorlath is just the way I like it. Epic fast and furious melodic hymnic metal with warrior touch and makes me smile and pump my fist in the air and it cheers my heart in these dark times of no gigs and festivals yet. The lyrics are in Spanish, so I don´t really understand what they are singing about but the musicianship, speed, melodic and fast guitar riffs, hooks and especially vocals and backing vocal harmonies are so epic! I love Hoy debes luchar and it is one of my personal favorites on this record with those sweet, sweet, harmonies. This music is perfect for keeping the flame alive and making your old warrior´s heart pumping with fresh blood. My other personal favorites are Mithrandir and Llanto de fuego. Cheers Dagorlath and keep your armor shining and your swords high for another ten years at least!
Hah it has been a long time since I listened to some quality epic metal, which makes me pump my fist in the air and fills my old warrior´s heart with pride and valor reminding me why I love this kind of metal so much. Warrior Path are epic/power metal band from Greece led by guitarist Andreas Sinanoglou and featuring mighty Bob Katsionis of Firewind fame and Daniel Heiman of Lost Horizon on vocals. This album contains ten songs with It Has Begun being instrumental intro. What to say? I am awed by this album, being perfect example how quality warrior epic metal is made. Daniel´s vocals are better than ever and songwriting is fantastic with fantastic choruses just made for singing along live and pumping your horns and fists in the air. Guitar work is impeccable with so many great solos, melodies, hooks and riffs. Atmospheric parts in the songs only add to the drama and tell this fantasy story of war, betrayal, madness, loyalty and vengeance. My personal favorites are the title song, Avenger and Neverending Path. This is a superb record for all of you who love your metal melodic, energetic and epic!
After delivering one e.p. in 2018, this is Adamantis debut full length album. This band is hailing from Boston, USA and there are eleven songs on this record, first(Into The Realm) being kinda intro. The music is epic and melodic power/heavy metal, fast and furious with beautiful melodies, courtesy of awesome singer Jeff Stark and so melodic and almost soundtrack sounding guitar riffs of guitarist Javier Estrada and Jeff Taft. The rhythm section of Cody Pelchat on bass and Evgeny Gromovoy on drums is thundering through the song structures like warhorse in the battle. Of all the songs if I must say some personal favorites of mine, that would be Pupeteer´s Bane and Fire And Brimstone., also Journey´s End. This record is one more proof why heavy metal is the most noble and most great music on planet Earth besides skatepunk and horror punk too.
