GLORYFUL – End of the Night
Massacre
Records
I
do appreciate the sound that HELLOWEEN have created with their music, but the
German metal sound I like was forged by bands like ACCEPT, GRAVE DIGGER and
RUNNING WILD. I mean I do like the rough sound mixed with catchy melodies and
sing along choruses. It is also true that we have plenty of bands that have
been influenced by the HELLOWEEN sound, but not so many from the other genre.
So, in 2010 when GLORYFUL introduced themselves to me with their demo and later
on with their debut album, I was happy to find out that there are still
musicians in Germany that appreciate the teachings of ACCEPT, RUNNING WILD and
GRAVE DIGGER.
“End
of the Night” is the third full length release of the band and it seems that it
is very hard for them to release a mediocre album which is actually good for
us. I think that I made obvious with my introduction what you will listen to
here. A rock steady rhythm section which is blended with catchy melodies and of
course sing along choruses. The use of violin, which gives them more depth, is
also a nice touch and I think that the band should use it more in the future
(just check out the song “End of the Night”). The compositions that are
included here offer a variety of emotions since you will listen to from straight
forward heavy metal compositions to some more lyrical and epic like the song “For
Victory”.
All
in all GLORYFUL prove once again they are the future of the Teutonic metal
sound and I think that they deserve to get more attention especially from the
fans of this sound. It is a release that I can recommend to you without second
thoughts…
