Welcome to the 5th installment of the Ironflame legacy. Should you’re partial to energy steel, particularly the Ecu taste, then that is indisputably for you. The whole thing is treated by way of the immensely proficient Andrew D’Cagna, apart from for the guitar solos, that are carried out by way of Jesse Scott and Quinn Lukas.
Gird your loins and get ready for combat as Blood And Honour rattles away with some fast double kick drum motion and a spidery guitar line. The vocals are top notch—operatic and robust—and we get some dual harmonies earlier than the searing lead breaks. What a super get started! Any other spidery riff introduces Soul Survivors earlier than it settles right into a Priest-like energy steel groove, then Majesty Of Metal continues the good paintings.
Mistress Of Want is the place issues more or less drop off—it’s a mid-paced curler, however the lyrics are deficient. C’mon, Andrew, you’ll do significantly better. Status Tall proves he has it in him; guy, this is going for the jugular from the beginning. It’s correct speedy and can get you throwing your horns. Then we get an actual headbanger in Sword Of A Thousand Truths, which plods alongside and permits us to catch our breath.
Woah, we’re off once more with Using Dragons earlier than any other stylish banger, Shadow Of The Reaper. I’ve two bonus cuts on my obtain: Chilly Flesh, which weaves and grooves round and will get you fist-pumping, and an attractive steel ballad, Exile Of The Solar.
Energy steel, when completed neatly, is very good, and this is very good—most commonly. The one fault, in my opinion, is Mistress Of Want, however the remainder of it’s top-notch. Numerous swords and sorcery are happening with the whole thing you could be expecting and extra musically. That is 50 mins the place you’ll slip from your dreary, boring, uninteresting existence and believe your self because the muscle-bound hero killing dragons together with your large sword and rescuing the ones scantily clad damsels… I’m off to play it once more.
