Plain and simply: "This is a very
good power metal album"!
Ohh - you need more info?
All right, Tarot has been around for a
very long time, delivering one classic power metal album after another.
Most of them have never surfaced and caught much attention from the
metal community outside of Finland.
Why, one might ask?
Well, first and foremost because until now their albums haven't been
that exciting.
So the label has decided that they want
to push this album with a sticker stating: "Featuring Marco Hietala
from Nightwish". Why, one might ask again, because he and his
brother Zachary has been the core of Tarot since the middle of
the 80's, and they have released 6 studio albums before this one...
I choose to let the music do the
talking, and this is by far the best Tarot album ever!
Marco and Zackary have created a very interesting and mature album with
powerful, melodic, melancholic and slightly progressive metal song,
which I am sure, will please fans of their earlier albums and win over
many new ones...
Just put one the album and be impressed
from the word: GO! This album does not have a dull moment and I
am sure Tarot will be moving in the right direction with this release.
Take a listen and judge for yourselves...
