KING WRAITH – Of Secrets and Lore
Underground
Symphony
The
reason why I love heavy metal music is because it offers me thrills that you
can find in a good movie or a book. I always read the lyrics and I like very
much the bands that support their lyrical topics with their music. The bands
that drag you into the world they create and I think that KING WRAITH do a very
good job at that.
As
you can figure out from the title of their debut album, the lyrics are about
mythology, pirates, fantasy and historical topics. The kind of lyrics that I
love in an epic metal band and believe me the Italians have a good tradition on
creating epic feelings. The music of the band although it shows its influences
is given in a personal way and this is because the musicians behind the band
are well experienced by participating in known underground Italian metal bands
like the great BEJELIT and KILLIN’ KIND. So, the fans of RUNNING WILD will
definitely dig this album, but besides the pirate anthem compositions you can
also find references to such bands like GRAVE DIGGER, BLIND GUARDIAN and even
OMEN.
“Of
Secrets and Lore” is an album that has it all; an epic feeling, sing along
choruses, enthusiasm dipped into experience and skillful musicianship and above
all it’s made by people who are first fans of this sound and play the kind of
music they love to listen to. It is an album that definitely belongs amongst
the best heavy/power metal releases of this year and I think that these guys
are strong competitors of BLAZON STONE. No more to add, just buy the album!!!
