Bejelit
You Die and I...

Style: Power Metal
Release date: February 26th 2010
 

This is, without comparision, the weakest card in the otherwise very promising deck held by the Italian Punishment 18 label.

The Italian quintet Bejelit offer Germanic inspired power metal, full of hollow theatrics, nonsense English and all the clichees you can possibly cram into a much too long album.

Normally, I can at least appreciate power metal of this sort when it's really well-played and full of power and bombast. In this case, the bombast is not there and singer Fabio has a real problem delivering a convincing effort.

Look for the other and better options out there if you're in the power metal mood.

The cover is cool!

Next, please.
