KILMARA - Love Songs and
Other Nightmares
Sony Music Entertainment
I think that every artist
needs in each of his/her works to express himself/herself in the best possible
way and this motivates them to add new elements in their art or evolve elements
that already existed in their previous works. I am writing that because I have
listened to the previous album of KILMARA under the title “Don’t Fear the Wolf”
and I think that the band in their new album have achieved a little bit of
both. I mean they have evolved the elements of the sound they had in their
previous release, but they have also added new elements to it. The new elements
help to expand their sound variety and not alter the core of their music. In
their previous release KILMARA sounded more traditional heavy/power metal and
although the references to IRON MAIDEN are still here in their new album, I
think that they also have some melodic thrash metal elements in the vein of
good old MEGADETH. Besides that they have a modern approach in their sound
production and some grooves that bring to mind Swedish melodic death metal bands.
In a few words KILMARA have sustained their traditional heavy/power metal
sound, but also modernized it a bit. The substance of it all is that KILMARA
have managed to release an album that has variety and balances between melodies
and heavy riffs. The friends of modern European heavy/power metal will enjoy
this…
