Genre: Happy Metal/Melo
As cheesy as it sounds, ‘Metal is for everyone’ opts for catchy and epic but most important it mentions Vikings and metal in the same breath. It is definitely an ‘earworm’ moment and for those who don’t know what an ‘earworm’ is it’s when a song stays in your head and you can’t shift it, however, this is a really pleasing track that is made welcome with a fast break-neck speed attached to it. If Vikings could choose music this would be the track they’d choose, while swinging their tankards of mead!
The melodic rhythm of ‘Hammer of Gods’ kicks up a storm and once again feeds the ears to a feast of enjoyment. ‘A World beyond’ holds some teasing melodic rampage and is definitely harmony filled with a ferocity that transports you into a world of epic bounce and magnetism!
‘Master of Light’ keeps us in medieval times with that haunting rhythm and broods with manipulative lures that are bold and forthright, telling a very compelling and positive story.
‘Kings rise and fall’ the sweeping melodic notes give the track a powerful uplifting creative flair, while the riffs are fast and furious and infect with perpetual emotion.
‘Cradle of Angels’ has a beautiful medieval twist, transporting you back to forgotten times. The slowest track on the album is sad, voiced with emotion and stirring proposals. ‘Emerald Skies’ instinctively sends shivers down the spine as another epic metal lullaby bewitches. Melodies simply abduct the audial with resounding intoxicating twists and uplifting edge! ‘Hail the Legend’ the band go into battle, as it perpetuates motion marching to war and winning hearts. It’s a glorious track that reaps its reward winning superb melodic favour! ‘Ghost Ballet’ a very clever title created with brilliant keyboard notes, fluctuating with lustful smouldering! The riffs enslave the audial and the vocals are extremely addictive as they belt out heartfelt lyrics.
‘Rock the Nation’ another very catchy and melodic track simply oozes irresistible pleasure and is most definitely happy melodic metal. ‘Riders in the Sky’ possesses a haunting trait that soon picks up speed and ravishes with enticing rancour, painting more positive pictures with superb emotional turbulence. ‘High up’ the ingredients of this track will get everyone on a high, as it lights the way to positivity with a high kick! The music bounces with feverish and expressive tones.
