Don’t have the full length yet, but the two singles I have “officially” and the other couple online releases show some promise, I mean, after their last album it’s tough to get worse… one of these new ones is very happy metal core type stuff… a very “everyone jump up and down” then do melodic chorus type thing. The other is a bit more post clayman sounding and shows promise again.

Mark Morton

Well, this guy… from Lamb of God decided to do a solo album, his signature guitar sound is present but with different singers, so far, one track with Chester from Linkin Park… has his vox, but with a heavier edge musically, also Alissa from Arch Enemy, Randy, Chuck Billy, Myles Kennedy and a bunch of who’s who performing other stuff aside from guitars… cool stuff.

Dream Theater

So far a handful of singles have been released and as my “favorite band” they seem to be well, “dream theater” nothing new or ground breaking, nothing really bad or “astonishing” as it were. Good solid classic prog metal dream theater… melodic decent stuff.

Queensryche
The Verdect
Century Media Records
Like the Dream theater, just a couple singles so far… It amazes me how Todd can sound just like old Geoff. Musically this is a bit more of the classic proggy metal Ryche we all fell in love with. And yeah, so they only have two original members playing on this, it’s more “Queensryche” than the last bunch of albums have been!

Candlemass
The Door To Doom (EP)
Napalm Records
Pioneers of Doom are still churning out the instant classics… this is just a single “Astorolus The Great Octopus”

Last In Line

Rhapsody Of Fire
The Eighth Mountain
AFM Records
22 February 2019
One of the first bands to have the full on epic proggy power metal thing… and now with a new singer and drummer, this sounds pretty heavy and solid, not quite as hollywood epic, but still heavy solid epic power metal… great stuff.

Doomy melodic blackened metal, as I review a lot of stuff at a time, I tend to skip through stuff pretty quick… this had a good tone, melodic darkness, but still interesting that I wasn’t in a hurry to get to the next review…

The Fallen Entities
High Roller Records
22 February 2019
This was the band that was originally the “original” band called Incubus… yeah that one from the 80’s/90’s, not the “popular” Incubus… well, later on they changed their name and this is their new album… just full on classic good heavy catchy death metal. Good stuff.

just some standard female fronted rock/hard rock… can’t say it’s in the metal realm… maybe a bit of a blues hard rock vibe.

Periphery
”Blood Eagle”
3DOT Recordings
Just a single, but this is some cool crazy tech death metalcore type stuff… I can’t say it’s too much different of what I know this band for… and that’s good!

John Diva and The Rockets of Love
Mama Said Rock is Dead
SPV
This has that early 90’s hard rock/aor thing going on… pretty good if you were around for that kind of stuff (like me)… nowadays, not sure if the kids will be going for this stuff… hehe

Avantasia
Moonglow
Nuclear Blast USA
This first single, “The Raven Child” track 4 features Hansi Kursch and Jorn Lande… can it get better for power metal vocalists? This 11 minute epic has these two guests and Tobias Sammet on lead vox (he’s the leader of this supergroup project thing) Great symphonic power metal stuff.

Visions Of Atlantis
The Deep And The Dark (Live)
Napalm Records
Another epic power metal band… this one is a live album of their latest tour… Good solid euro female/metal vox power metal… and a great live production.

Delain

This one sounds like some classic metal with a little bit of a power metal vocal style… musically it’s a good solid general just “metal” sound

Just a single so far, but damn, these guys can just really do no wrong, fast catchy grooving thrash with Blitz’ unmistakeable vocals. Bring on the Overkill!
