Running Wild – Shadowmaker (2012)

The revival of legendary band Running Wild should come as pleasant surprise to fans. Three years ago, vocalist, guitarist, and currently the only member, Rolf Kasparek abruptly folded the band, without offering much explanation. Now he returns with Shadowmaker, the first Running Wild album in seven years.

Running Wild’s Rolf Kasparek: the pirate sets sail again.

Shadowmaker will likely please fans; it’s rather typical Kasparek/Running Wild. Here’s melodic metal that could pass for edgier hard rock. Being labeled ‘pirate metal’ in the early days, these themes are revisited on Riding on the Tide and Sailing Fire, two rousing songs. Then there’s some party metal rock in Piece of the Action and Me + the Boys. I can’t recall ever hearing a heavy metal song about trains, but Kasparek was able to craft a good one with Locomotive. Another fine tune, is his autobiographical metal anthem, I Am Who I Am, where he sounds like Popeye the Sailor Man. Those are the best tracks here. However, I suspect fans will dig the power metal of Into the Black, maybe the lengthy and dull, Dracula, not so much.

Otherwise, Shadowmaker is simply Kasparek’s Running Wild pirate ship relaunched and right back on course. Nothing extraordinary, but still entertaining. Recommended.

AETERNAL SEPRIUM – AGAINST OBLIVION’S SHADE 2012

Posted on April 12, 2012 in Heavy Metal |Power Metal by Alex F

The most difficult pill to swallow when it comes to FeedForward, is that the band themselves take it all with militant seriousness, blind to the sophomoric nature of the work. It should be a huge amount of nostalgic fun, but instead, it all washes off into whimsical daftness.

Their riffing owes influence to the likes of Marillion and Whitesnake; inevitably when the vocal gets raging they sound like most progressive-cum-eighties conversions of Nightwish. They’re an ambitious collective though, with the tracks often fractured enough to warrant an arrangement slinging in early Nightwish (think “Elvenpath”) – which is much less of a complement than you might think.

Early Nightwish was haggardly under produced, and it puts into focus that aspiring progressive acts really ought to leap onto a producers shoulders to convert their big ideas into something believable; needed to create the dips in energy for the verse extensions not to wearingly drag on, and clever twists to swirl the elements in a track. Three amps, a microphone, and a drum kit, simply isn’t enough anymore.

01. The Man Among Two Worlds
02. Vainglory
03. Sailing Like The Gods Of The Sea
04. Soliloquy Of The Sentenced
05. In Sign Of Brenno
06. Victimula’s Stone
07. Solstice Of Burning Souls
08. L’Eresiarca
09. The Oak And The Cross
10. Under Flag Of Seprium

Dakesis – Trial By Fire (2011)

Posted on April 12, 2012 in Heavy Metal |Power Metal,Progressive Rock by

The Birmingham five some Dakesis is ready to release their full-length debut called ‘Trial By Fire’, after their 2009 demo. Musically the band can be seen as a heavy/prog/sympho band. A genre which is famous for its clichés. And also on ‘Trial By Fire’ there is the familiar mix between synthesizers and guitars. And this mix goes all too well. Also in the vocal area there is a mix. This mix is, alas, of a lesser quality. Gemma Lawler, who handles the keys and the vocals does an excellent job. Wayne Dorman, who handles the guitar and the vocals seems to not have control over his voice all the time. But what disturbs me the most is that the band claims not to take themselves too seriously. This is a fine attitude to have, but it makes the music of a lesser quality. Power metal is not meant to be too serious, but the music itself if of course the most important element. If you like bands such as Dream Theater, Blind Guardian or Symphony X, because of aforementioned influences, you will probably like Dakesis as well. But when Dakesis is going over the top with their keys and guitars, they tend to run wild sometimes. This makes Dakesis only accessible for die-hard fans of the genre.
