FORTRESS
UNDER SIEGE – The Mortal Flesh of Love
Metal Mad Music Records
Fortress Under Siege is a Greek band specializing in
power and progressive metal. Their discography includes an eponymous EP
released in 1996, followed by their first full-length album, also titled The
Mortal Flesh of Love. Both releases were issued through Metal Mad Music
Records, a label that had been inactive for several years prior to these
releases.
The band's initial EP was well-received for its songwriting and energy; however, its production quality was somewhat lacking, which somewhat diminished its overall impact. In contrast, the production on the full-length album has notably improved, providing a clearer and more balanced sound that better showcases the band's musical abilities.
Musically, the band demonstrates a solid command of
their instruments, and vocalist Michalis Smeros delivers a noteworthy
performance with strong, expressive vocals. The album features several standout
tracks, including "Deeds of All Disgrace," "Gods of War,"
"My Foulest Sin," and "Blind Faith," which exemplify their
power and progressive metal influences.
Overall, The Mortal Flesh of Love represents a
commendable effort, reflecting the band's growth and dedication. Fans of power
and progressive metal may find this release worth exploring and supporting.
