New
York based Epic Power Metal band Aspire was formed back in 2004 by guitarist
Al Candello and vocalist Ryan Metzger, a three track EP called “All
Ahead” Was released in the beginning of 2005.
On
“Quest Eternal” Al Candello plays all the instruments while Ryan
Metzger are handling all the vocals, and they are doing a damn good job.
The music is a combination of Old School Heavy Metal and European
Symphonic Power Metal.
The
drum machine is a bit annoying at times and the production aren’t the
best but the music is simply phenomenal, tracks like the great ballad
“As Many Years (Go Passing By)”, The Epic “The Liberator” or the
speedy “Riding With the King” makes this album very solid, sometimes
they even sounds like Italian Epic Metal heroes Martiria.
It
is all wrapped in a great cover artwork by John Gri. “Quest Eternal”
is an essential release for all Epic Metal freaks.
