They caught my attention when they were scheduled for the Wacken Open Air 2008. A very interesting band. If simple they play power metal/heavy metal but aside from the fact that they have only vocals and drums.

Yes they don’t have guitars, bass and keys. The vocalists are singing three to four melodic lines instead. Sounds… really weird. On one side this is a unique metal band, somehow similar to Apocalyptica’s experiments. On the other it is still way more experimental and I’m really missing the shredding guitars and heavy bass lines. But still these dudes are focusing mostly on vocals and the vocal lines are awesome and catchy. Also the arrangements are very professional, it reminds me of the good old vintage days when people had to get the best results with bad equipment and focused on the music.

Their debut album “A Storm To Come” is making real noise in the underground metal scene and that is definitely a success. Another success is their cover of Metallicas “Battery”. A bit funny but very interesting.

Still hope to catch them live this summer!
