We're starting off heavy this time with Mystic Prophecy giving us a dire piece of post-apocalyptic power metal. The riffs are crunchy, the vocals soar, and the drums pound away like it's the end of the world! (Heh.)
Eclipse just keeps making great songs that rock hard along with their melodies! Apparently, I need to go back and just listen to their whole album. If it has this many great songs, already, it's probably a winner, right?!
Noveria just keeps chugging away, making for some epic progressive metal. Between the huge riffs, the synthy solos, and dynamic shifts, they really take you on a journey in such a short song, and it's great all the way through!
Never heard of these guys before, but all it took was this one song to decide to post it. Add a touch of country to a thick post-grunge sound very reminiscent of Nickelback (which is not a bad thing, in my book!). Balancing hard rock riffs with acoustic touches, this is a band I'll have to keep an out for in the future.
Yup, more Archon Angel! Full of big riffs, orchestral sweeps, and Zak's huge voice, this one is simply epic! While it definitely stands on the shoulders of Savatage and TSO, Archon Angel proves they have it where it counts. I should probably get around to the whole album, now that it's out, huh?
Let's finish with another piece from this exciting Allen/Olzen project. We get Russell Allen doing the vocals solo for this song (I think), but it remains a solid piece of symphonic metal, full of drama and solid melodies, nonetheless! Excellent song from start to finish!
