Info:
The debut release of the Italian sextet is a concept album and tells the story of the Black Crystal Sword that becomes the apple of discord for the four kings and the evil dark wizard. Ok, reading the lyrics the term cliche popped up in my mind but I managed to constraint it because we are here to talk about the music. "The Birth OF Evil" enters with a fast almost galloping tempo leading the listener to the climax with keyboard melodic phrases and finger melting guitar scales. Apart from the nice sing-along bridge, I really enjoyed the rhythm guitar work which reveals the nice Heavy Metal layers that I'd prefer to meet more frequently here. And then, it is solo time where you get the over-played keyboard-guitar-bass sequence where the tempo accelerates to underline the high skills of ANCIENT BARDS and inevitably burn out my interest-fuse. On the other hand, the orchestrations work perfectly on the story telling part and build the landscapes with kings, dragons, wizards and everything a nice fantasy book can deliver.
